Delano ships Knowledge Management Server
Delano Technologyhas just release of its Knowledge Management Server, a software product that integrates with the Delano-business Interaction Suite to add artificial-intelligence-assisted technology enabling companies to automatically manage, capture, categorize, cross-reference and route information and knowledge across the enterprise. The server, which is built upon Autonomy’s pattern matching technology, provides flexible and powerful English language and language-independent search capabilities to interpret and manage free-form text received from e-mail messages, wireless devices or Web-based forms.
Delano says the server provides a central location for searching and accessing information from disparate sources, such as the Internet, corporate Intranets, databases and file systems, thus enabling the efficient distribution of time-sensitive information. Delano emphasizes that the server seamlessly extends and integrates with the company’s e-business suite, allowing rapid deployment applications that span the enterprise and leverage AI-assisted technology to harvest knowledge assets.
The offering is made up of four distinct pieces:
• The Delano Knowledge Management Server, which includes document servers to index documents; category servers to create, train or re-train categories; and category training document servers to store the documents and training text for categories,
• The Administration Tool is used to define and configure knowledge bases,
• A Web Administration Tool provides remote administration through any Web browser, and
• Knowledge Base Components are integrated with the application builder environment of the Delano e-Business Interaction Suite, enabling organizations to develop and deploy e-business applications that interact with knowledge bases on the knowledge server.
The Knowledge Management Servers runs on Windows NT 4.0 (with Service Pack 4 or higher) and requires the Delano e-Business Interaction Suite 2.0 or higher. Pricing varies depending on enterprise configuration
