More than 80% of all data in an enterprise is unstructured information. This encompasses telephone conversations, voicemails, emails, word documents, paper documents, images, web pages, video and hundreds of additional formats. Unfortunately, attempts to leverage this immense and strategic resource often fail because many businesses lack the requisite technology to understand and effectively utilize content that resides outside the scope of structured databases.
Similarly, unstructured processes are equally unwieldy yet comprise the bulk of business operations. Current trends anticipate the rapid proliferation of rich media, widespread adoption of VOIP, growing use of IPTV and increased scrutiny of white collar crimes. This overwhelming profusion demands an automated solution that can effectively manage an unstructured digital morass.
Autonomy delivers a complete software infrastructure solution that forms an understanding of content in any file format - text or voice-based, structured or unstructured - regardless of where it is stored, how it was created, or which application is associated with the data. Applications can thereby communicate with each other without any manual effort involved in setting up complicated connectors or using metadata. Autonomy's technology makes enterprise systems "data-agnostic" and provides automated efficiencies for processes that were once manually intensive.
