The Role of Enterprise Knowledge Graphs for Uncovering New Data Insights

To create new competitive advantages, improve resilience, and protect themselves from fraud, abuse, and regulatory exposures, organizations need to uncover and analyze increasingly complex data relationships. This is proving difficult with traditional business intelligence, analytics, and data management as data volume and variety explode, data democratization adds many more users, and analytics and AI/ML workloads become more dynamic and demanding. Enterprise knowledge graphs, semantic models, and graph databases are enabling many organizations to move beyond the constraints of traditional technologies to gain faster insights into data relationships, including through powerful data visualization.

This TDWI presentation will discuss issues driving interest in enterprise knowledge graphs, semantic models, and graph databases. Looking at TDWI research, we will examine the importance of graphs for solving agility and speed-to-insight challenges with analytics, AI/ML, data catalogs, governance, and data integration.

Accelerating Analytics and AI with Enterprise Knowledge Graphs

Knowledge graphs are on the rise at enterprises hungry for greater automation and intelligence. The flexibility of the graph model, along with its explicit storage of data relationships, makes it not only easy to manage data arriving from diverse sources, but search and explore data to reveal new insights that would otherwise be very difficult to discover.

An Enterprise Knowledge Graph fills that critical gap in existing data management tech stacks. It fits nicely between where data is stored, catalogued, and consumed to eliminate data access barriers, add meaning to data through semantic models, and promote a culture of self-service and self-sufficiency.

Join this session to learn how Stardog’s Enterprise Knowledge Graph platform can:

• Streamline access to your data with virtualization
• Enrich your data with business meaning using semantic standards
• Identify new connections and insights through inference
• Deliver better data to your existing analytics tools
