Generic databases, such as DBpedia and Freebase, document concepts that people think, speak and write about. Knowing about millions of thing, they are complimentary to the top-down approach taken by Cyc and SUMO.
Next-generation web sites, user information, information retreival, as well as systems for text analysis and text synthesis will depend on high-quality, curated, commonsense knowledge. Infovore, our intelligent Etl platform, uses parallel processing to purify and transform data at a rate orders of magnitude faster than conventional RDF tools.
Our beta release of the Ookaboo RDF Dump will be followed by a product in early Q2 2012 that will radically simplify the creation of applications based on Freebase and other Linked data. Contact us if you're concerned about the cost, risk, and time-to-market of projects involving Linked Data.
