I have spent some time looking at SharePoint, managing large volumes of SharePoint content, and wanting to implement a better metadata management capability in SharePoint for EDS. What I wanted to do was implement a capability whereby across multiple site collections (around 200) containing 4 million documents we could manage metadata consistently (SharePoint columns).

There are tools on the market that can provide this sort of capability to a greater or lesser extent. The best tool I reviewed was SchemaLogic. The problem with it was the price. Most other tools I looked at did not provide the ability to manage things consistently at the level we were wanting. There was a discussion on this very topic in one of the Taxonomy groups recently and here is a post (from Stephanie Lemieux) that went out in that community: Paul Wlodarczyk and I at Earley & Associates have been doing a lot of evaluation of Taxonomy/Metadata management tools for SharePoint, so let me offer a summary of the tools we know of: Plugins to help with tagging (ie. do not help manage the metadata values): Kwizcom: tagging plugin (http://www.kwizcom. com/ProductPage. asp?ProductID= 517&ProductSubNodeID= 518) Plugins to help with tagging & metadata management: SharePart XXL (http://www.sharepar txxl.com/ products/ taxonomy/ default.aspx) (this tools calls itself a "taxonomy" extension, but it does not really solve the problem of hierarchy in SharePoint – so it is really just about metadata). Taxonomy Management Tools with SharePoint Connectors: (i.e. These tools manage the data structure outside SharePoint, so they enable true taxonomy) Smartlogic (http://www.smartlog ic.com/index. php/search- navigation- experience/ moss-edition) Concept Searching (http://www.concepts earching. com/web/) Synaptica (http://www.synaptic acentral. com/content/ synaptica- sharepoint- integration) Wordmap (http://www.wordmap. com/wordmap_ search_integrati on_framework. asp) SchemaLogic (http://www.schemalo gic.com/solution s/by_platform/ sharepoint. php) There are also some other metadata tagging tools, like Cogniva (www.cogniva. ca), Titus Labs (titus-labs. com), Someone had mentioned Interse iBox, but were off the market as of December. There also used to be a module called CMS.Rapid, but their site seems to be down and I haven't heard about them recently. Personally what we did was create our own taxonomy tool capability (I am going to present on this to Montague associates session in July). The aim was simply to build a tool that allowed us to identify using the underlying URI which columns were Choice fields and be able to manage a taxonomy site in SharePoint that kept a list of the fields and their values. Then run a job on a nightly basis that would identify whether the site libaries and lists using the same underlying URI name were using the exact same metadata as the values defined on he taxonomy site. Producing a matching and non-matching list. We could then immediately identify those not matching the standard values and chase them up. We also then had a seocnd part to the tool that could use the information on which columns were on what libraries and when a change occurred to a value, we could immedialtely cascade the change on to all the libraries and lists using that metadata value (and a further run would allow us to update any documents or list items that had those values). Thus we could identify inconsistencies, chase them up, keep things accurate as changes were made. This is not a perfect solution (in order to work al sites need to use all the values in their metadata lists, or else managing changes becomes difficult) but it works for us. --- In sikmleaders@..., Matt Moore <laalgadger@...> wrote:

Tom Reamy <tomr@...>
Matt,
I just finished an evaluation of a number of vendors in this general area for a client and one thing was very clear – there are a lot of variations and overlaps.
So some questions you should ask are: How tight an integration with Sharepoint is needed? Most everyone these days plays well with Sharepoint but there is a lot of variation in how. Are you primarily interested in metadata management and/or taxonomy management? That is, do you have a number of complex taxonomies with multiple authors working on them or is it mostly managing the actual metadata associated with specific sets of documents?
Lastly, are you looking to add any text analytics capabilities – auto-tagging with the taxonomy and entity extraction?
My experience is that both Synaptic and SchemaLogic are very good taxonomy and metadata management software packages, but if you are looking for any text analytics or auto-tagging capability then I’d add in no particular order:
Smart Logic Business Objects / Inxight Teragram Lexalytics (has added features of sentiment analysis) Data Harmony – I’d add them even if you’re not interested in text analytics.
Hope that helps and be glad to answer any questions
Tom

Hi Matt - I'm not sure of the broader scope of your project so this may be too robust but Tomoye makes a product that uses taxonomy management as a key component to supporting CoPs and it's tightly integrated with SharePoint. You can see a video and more info here:

Hello Matt,
We are using the Kwizcom Tagging Feature and it works well for tagging lists and entire site collections, but it's far from a metadata solution in terms of taxonomy management. Good Luck, I am interested in the feedback of the other tools as well. Michael |

Albert,
I may have some time to work with it but definitely would like to go over
it. I'm the editor in chief if the International Journal of Knowledge
Management and while I don't think this is directly publishable (and you say
you've published already anyway), I would like to look at it and see if there is
something that could be done for the KM community. Of course I'll send you
what ever I come up with and will continue the discussion with you on anything I
think could be done. Thanks...murray

Simard, Albert <albert.simard@...>
Cory (and KM colleagues) –
I have, at my disposal four KM-related glossaries that I developed for different projects. They are: Knowledge Management (300 terms), Access to Knowledge (75 terms), Knowledge Services (400 terms), and a Modeling Framework (650 terms, high % KM-related). The first 3 have been published; all are in the public domain. As would be expected, there is some redundancy across the four glossaries, although each flavors specific definitions to the context in which they are intended to be used.
I am prepared to share these with SIKM, but I simply don’t have the time to cut & paste them into the terminology site. They are currently available in WordPerfect and HTML (posted on a wiki); they could be readily converted to Word.
If anyone out there has the time to add them or has a summer student that is not fully occupied, let me know.

[Apologies for the cross-posting but we are casting a wide net.]
We would like to introduce you (again for some) to the Knowledge Bucket .
This is an effort to provide open source KM (freely available information and knowledge on knowledge management). The effort is voluntary in nature and there is no commercial proposition (see our drafts for a manifesto ).
We would like to here your thoughts on such an initiative.
The bucket has been filling for the last six months and we now have over 50 contributors mainly base in the Asia Pacific region.
We are inviting you to contribute. This is not meant to replace any currently existing resources, but to act as a portal to all the nooks and crannies that currently exist.
We are having a raid next week on the KM Terms section. Feel free to contribute of even have a look and pick something up.
In a blatant attempt to get KM people to practice what they preach, We hope you can join us.

Hi, SIKM Leaders,
At last year's APQC KM Conference about a dozen or so members of this group got together for dinner - and extended the networking, sharing and learning from the event. If you are attending the conference this year and are interested in meeting for dinner (most likely on Thursday evening - that seems to work best with the schedule), send me an email and I will be happy to organize a repeat of last year's great food, great company and great conversation.

Federal Recovery Funding for KM-related efforts?
#consulting
Tom Short <tman9999@...>
Anyone aware of any companies attempting to get or actually getting funding from any of the various US Fed Recovery programs to support KM-related activities (including simple things like training for non-labor positions, content management, etc)?
Between Obama's focus on the sciences and engineering, and the need for massive amounts of worker redeployment training, just wondering whether any KM folks within large companies or KM consultants pitching to large companies have found a viable way to get Fed recovery funding for their efforts. Thanks. -Tom Short |
