Disambigution of Textual Data

The profound division between structured and unstructured data has prevented organizations from including unstructured, textual data from being used for analytical purposes. The worlds of text and structured data have grown up together as if each of the worlds were in a vacuum. Today, with FOREST RIM®’s TextualETL™, you can bring together structured data and unstructured data to:

Integrate textual data into a data base,
Create an unstructured data base that is then integrated with structured data in a data warehouse,
Read and process unstructured data so that textual analytics can be done.
Leverage the investment you have already made in Business Intelligence.
Optimize your analytical infrastructure so it can be used – as is – and include unstructured data as part of the decision making process.

FOREST RIM®’s TextualETL™ reads, integrates, and prepares unstructured data that is ready to go into standard technologies such as Oracle, DB2, Teradata, and NT SQL Server. Once the unstructured data resides in any of those technologies, standard analytical tools such as Business Objects, Cognos, MicroStrategy, SAS, Tableau and other analytical and BI visualization technologies can be used to access, analyze, and present your unstructured data.

These new applications can look at and retrieve textual data and can address and highlight fundamental challenges of the corporation that have previously been unrealized.
