Franz and Smartlogic Help Enterprises Deploy Highly Scalable, Distributed Semantic Graphs

May 24, 2021 — Franz Inc., an early innovator in Artificial Intelligence (AI) and leading supplier of Graph Database technology for Knowledge Graph Solutions, and Smartlogic, a leader in Semantic AI technology, today announced a collaboration aimed to help large enterprises accelerate the timeframe to deploy highly-scalable, distributed Semantic Knowledge Graph solutions. The Franz Inc. and Smartlogic combination provides organizations with end-to-end technology along with the expertise to quickly create enterprise-scale Semantic Knowledge Graphs, which serve as the underpinning for Artificial Intelligence applications.

“Enterprises today need the ability to rapidly integrate new knowledge into their organization, which is the crux of Knowledge Graph solutions and depends entirely on Semantic technologies,” said Dr. Jans Aasman, CEO of Franz Inc. “Semantic Graph database technology uniquely provides companies with the foundational environment for delivering real-time Artificial Intelligence along with the ability to continually enrich and contextualize the understanding of data.”

“Extracting value from the full set of information – both structured and unstructured is a key challenge for enterprises,” said Jeremy Bentley, CEO and Founder of Smartlogic. “Semantic Knowledge Graphs can connect data from different domains, data models, and data formats without changing the format. Knowledge Graphs also put data in context and create a powerful framework to integrate data, discover knowledge, and perform in-depth analysis across the enterprise.”
