sdaas / overview

SDaaS™ (Smart Data as a Service) is a software platform to automate the data ingestion and linking in an Enterprise Knowledge Graph.

In a nutshell an Enterprise Knowledge Graph is a system consisting in :

  • data extracted from various data sources (first, second and third party data);
  • a formal knowledge organization that allows linking the data;
  • all metadata required to trace data provenance and to evaluate the data quality;
  • axioms and rules computed by "reasoners" that are able to understand the meaning of the data;
  • an interface to query the knowledge graph and to answers questions

SDaaS is the reference implementation of the Knowledge Exchange Engine Service (KEES) specifications.

SDaaS is composed by:

  • the community edition platform, released as Open Source in GITHUB that provides a CLI interface and core tools for creating a knowledge base;
  • the enterprise edition platform, only available in the commercial version, that extends the community edition with additional tools and interfaces;
  • a software KEES agent, included in the enterprise edition, that is able to understand the KEES specifications for building and maintaining a shareable and tradeable Enterprise Knowledge Graph

SDaaS and the Enterprise knowledge graph are important pieces of a smart data management platform architecture to:

  • collect, update and link the right data mashed from various sources;
  • audit data quality and enforce the trust in your data;
  • discover new information that you can deduct from the collected data;
  • support machine learning and artificial intelligence systems
