Semaphore for SharePoint signs up Australian reseller

Barbador has recently been appointed as the exclusive Australian agent for Smartlogic, the UK-based creator of the Semaphore Semantic Platform.

Semaphore empowers existing information management systems by adding advanced content classification, metadata enrichment, and contextual navigation capabilities. 

Smartlogic says the result is a more complete enterprise information management experience that generates maximum business value from information assets. 

Semaphore is built from four core and inter-connected modules: 

  1. an Ontology Manager;
  2. Classification and Text Mining;
  3. Semantic Enhancement Server; and
  4. a Search Application Framework.

Matthieu Jonglez, Smartlogic’s chief technology officer, said Semaphore can be used to to bridge the gap between SharePoint and other applications. 

“These refinements will help organizations use Semaphore to create an enterprise-level categorisation and metadata strategy that can be applied consistently to other systems feeding into SharePoint. This will help ensure consistent metadata governance across an entire enterprise – across all documents and all users. Ultimately, this means that organisations can more easily and efficiently find and leverage valuable information assets that are being managed through SharePoint.”

Barbador will deploy Smartlogic Semaphore along with technologies like Google Search, Google enterprise geospatial, and Microsoft SharePoint
