I'd like an ECMA with my UIMA
08-Sep-2005IBM has announced the release of open-source infrastructure for combining text analytic tools called Unstructured Information Management Architecture, or "UIMA." As usual, Jon Udell has one of the better first takes. I'm going to write more about UIMA elsewhere, but right now I'll just argue that it will help put the discipline of text mining on the map. It also makes me think that we could use a similar framework for the ECM space: a core, open-source architecture for plugging in disparate vendor solutions to normalize task and content flow within specific applications. To start such an initiative, it would take a prominent company with a large professional services cadre....say, IBM?
