IBM embraces open source search

Email This Entry

Posted by Dominic Basulto

Information Week has more on IBM's overtures to the open source community:

"IBM is at it again. The IT giant is offering yet another batch of technology to the open-source world in hope of propagating widespread text search and analytics. IBM said it will make its Unstructured Information Management Architecture (UIMA) framework freely available to help make unstructured data more easily searchable--and findable."

According to one IBM engineer, the company's contribution of UIMA to the open source community will "open up tremendous opportunities for companies in the business intelligence arena as well as in the search space."
