Knowledge Integration Platform enables organizations to rapidly deploy powerful, search-driven applications at a fraction of the cost, time, and risk of other alternatives. With this platform, SharePoint/FAST customers can improve the implementation of search-driven applications, delivering a remarkable user experience, classification, and connectivity to a wide variety of content sources.

Boston, MA, February 17, 2014 --(PR.com)-- BA Insight, provider of software and services that significantly improve the implementation of search-driven applications, announces the BA Insight Knowledge Integration Platform, which enables organizations to rapidly deploy powerful, search-driven applications at a fraction of the cost, time, and risk of other alternatives. With this platform, SharePoint/FAST customers can improve the implementation of search-driven applications, delivering a remarkable user experience, classification, and connectivity to a wide variety of content sources.

“Almost every enterprise has some kind of enterprise search (maybe several projects), and almost no one is fully happy with it,” wrote Whit Andrews, VP, Distinguished Analyst and Hanns Koehler-Kruener, Research Director at Gartner in the May 2013 report Four Ways to Rescue Search, Maybe Even Without Spending Additional Money. They go on to write, “Search managers should know more about how to redesign what it's meant to do, how it does it, and how it looks when it's done as this might be a search project's salvation.”

The BAI Knowledge Integration Platform turns enterprise search engines into knowledge engines by transforming the way information is found to get the right information to the right people at the right time. It has the flexibility to function as a comprehensive solution or be implemented in a phased approach to meet growing organizational needs. The platform consists of three robust engines:

User Experience Engine - drives remarkable user experiences for finding and exploring knowledge or experts via an extensible engine and a library of powerful components
Content Intelligence Engine - increases findability using automated classification, metadata generation, and text analytics
Content Connectivity Engine - provides secure connectivity to a wide variety of content systems, enabling unified views of all knowledge assets

Numerous Global 5000 enterprises have deployed the BA Insight Knowledge Integration Platform to transform the way they find and access information, helping them increase innovation, improve productivity, grow revenue, and reduce costs. Apache Corporation, an oil and gas exploration and production company with operations in the United States, Canada, Egypt, the United Kingdom North Sea, Australia, and Argentina has used the platform to improve the search experience for its users.

“We have adopted BA Insight as part of our architecture for delivering information,” commented Travis Osborne, Director, Information Management at Apache. “The combination of Apache’s existing technology with BA Insight’s connectivity and user interface components is helping our IT organization quickly deliver efficient, powerful tools that match the way the business would like to see their work performed. The solution is blending our ‘structured’ transactional systems with our ‘unstructured’ content in a single experience. This technology is changing the way our business looks at search.”

The BAI Knowledge Integration Platform has the breadth and depth of capabilities needed to provide enterprises with a quick time to value while leveraging their existing infrastructure. It enables IT agility and unifies the presentation of information to provide a single, integrated view of knowledge assets.

“We are thrilled to see our customers become successful with search using our Knowledge Integration Platform,” said Jeff Fried, Chief Technology Officer at BA Insight. “As a result of our research, along with our experience with hundreds of search projects that have facilitated best practice implementations, we have developed the first comprehensive platform that uses the search core that organizations already own. Those using SharePoint/FAST in particular can leverage their existing infrastructure and skills, radically reducing their risk and time to value.”
