Jumper Platform provides a Web 2.0 Knowledgebase




With the introduction of Jumper鑺掗埀顑藉妷s next-generation software platform for enterprise knowledge management and collaboration Ryan Johansen Womens Jersey , Co-Founder and Lead Software Architect Steve Perry sat down with Data Storage Magazine at the Oracle BIWA Summit 2008 to discuss the features and benefits of this new Web 2.0 software platform.




Voler: What is Jumper?




Perry: Jumper is Web 2.0 software. It is a revolution in managing, organizing, sharing, and searching structured data. We鑺掗埀顑藉妷ve built a next- generation collaborative knowledgebase software platform for enterprise knowledge collection and data management that makes data easier to find and use. It is a web-based Intranet portal where users publish references to structured data. Other users can search the knowledgebase for this data. In addition, they can directly contribute what they know about this data to the knowledgebase. Users build a collective intelligence by sharing what they know about the data across your organization. It provides a host of new and innovative tools for sharing knowledge about data鑺掗埀顑解偓婕祏ch as notes Pekka Rinne Womens Jersey , annotations, derivations, context-maps, and linked data graphs鑺掗埀顑解偓婕歭l from your browser in a single, fully integrated solution. It is available from www.jumpernetworks as opensource software.




Voler: Why do we need a new platform?


Perry: Organizations have thousands of databases and image repositories across the global enterprise with limited or no visibility of these assets. This data is typically isolated in application silos Filip Forsberg Womens Jersey , dispersed across a variety of systems, and stored in a wide variety of different formats. Effectively searching or re-purposing this data is difficult, time consuming, and expensive. There had to be a better way to search this data that wasn鑺掗埀顑藉妷t constrained by schema or metadata. And there needed to be a way link it to other related data and to the knowledge about the data so that this data had broader meaning, context P.K Subban Womens Jersey , and validity. In this way search results could have real value to the researcher or clinician. Most of the knowledge about this data was isolated on laptops, in spreadsheets, in notebooks, or just in user鑺掗埀顑藉妷s heads. The real power of Jumper is unleashing this collective intelligence that exists across your organization and putting it at the finger-tips of all your knowledge workers.


Voler: Many vendors claim to be Web 2.0 is Jumper truly participatory?




Perry: Jumper offers two-way communication with the user, one that involves both searching and contributing. It is the power of the participatory web unleashed across your organization via a Web-based Adidas Ryan Johansen Jersey , portal-like application. Jumper consists of the collective interests of the entire community. Jumper is the sum of the content that users contribute. User-created data profiles identify quality data resources, user-contributed information adds real-world knowledge about the data resources, and user-created reviews sort out the worthy resources from the inadequate. It allows the participants to act as a filter for what is valuable. Jumper builds upon mainstream pursuits, but also uncovers valuable data assets hidden at the edge of your organization. When combined, both these mainstream and niche interests deliver insight in the most unexpected places. Consequently Adidas Pekka Rinne Jersey , Jumper is about using the wisdom of your organization, leveraging the know-how of those who do the work, providing simple and straightforward responses to user inclination, and sharing that knowledge so that others can build upon it.




Voler: How does Jumper improve search?




Perry: Traditionally searching structured data was limited by schema or metadata. Federated search required and intimate understanding of the schema, aggregating data in a warehouse was constrained by a common mo
