AllegroGraph’s Technology Featured by Gartner for Driving Business Value in Data

AllegroGraph Noted as a Graph Database to Consider for Semantic Technology Solutions

OAKLAND, Calif., January 15, 2019 — Franz Inc., an early innovator in Artificial Intelligence (AI) and leading supplier of Semantic Graph Database technology for Knowledge Graphs, today announced that Gartner featured AllegroGraph in a recent report that explains the importance of using semantic technology to drive business value out of data. AllegroGraph is a Semantic Graph Database that enables organizations to gain sophisticated insights and predictive analysis from highly complex, distributed data – exceeding the possibilities of conventional databases and laying the foundation for Knowledge Graphs and Artificial Intelligence solutions.

In the report, Gartner Analyst Guido De Simoni says, “Unprecedented levels of data scale and distribution are making it almost impossible for organizations to effectively exploit their data assets. Data and analytics leaders must adopt a semantic approach to their enterprise data assets or face losing the battle for competitive advantage.” (Source: Gartner, How to Use Semantics to Drive the Business Value of Your Data, Guido De Simoni, November 27, 2018.)

“We are pleased to see Gartner recognize the unparalleled value of using semantics to link data and create relationships between data, which ultimately drives knowledge out of data,” said Dr. Jans Aasman, CEO of Franz Inc. “Semantic technology and Knowledge Graphs are also the foundation for creating Artificial Intelligence applications, which can transform companies by creating seamless, highly efficient and predicable experiences for employees, customers and partners.”
