Autonomy Unveils Next-Generation Information Platform

Autonomy, an HP Company, has unveiled its information platform, Autonomy IDOL 10, designed to help organisations understand and process 100 percent of enterprise information in real time.

IDOL 10 provides a single processing layer that enables organisations to extract meaning and act on all forms of information, including audio, video, social media, email and web content, as well as structured data such as customer transaction logs and machine-based sensor data.

The platform combines Autonomy’s infrastructure software for automatically processing and understanding unstructured data with the high-performance real-time analytics engine for extreme structured data from Vertica, an HP Company.

The challenge for the modern enterprise is to understand and extract the value from the rich sea of Human Information, which accounts for 85 percent of all corporate data, including emails, audio, video, social networking, blogs, call-center conversations, closed circuit TV footage, and more.

By enabling computers to understand the shades of grey in the world, rather than simply the black and white found in databases, Autonomy Information Management allows businesses to automate key processes and improve an organisation’s efficiency.

“For far too long, organisations have confined structured data to relational databases and unstructured data to simplistic keyword matching technologies,” said Sanjay Aurora, vice president, Enterprise Sales, Asia Pacific and Japan, Autonomy, an HP company. ”IDOL 10 brings these worlds together, allowing organisations to automatically process, understand, and act on 100 percent of their data, in real-time. The results will be dramatic, as businesses can develop entirely new applications that explore the richness and color of Human Information that live in unstructured, semi-structured, and structured forms,” he added.
