The Perks of HP Autonomy’s IDOL
November 25, 2013
The promotional article on HP Autonomy titled IDOL, The OS For Human Information touts the abilities of the HP IDOL, (even including a fancy diagram.) The amount of data that HP IDOL can manage seems to be of central importance, but also its versatility in sorting and collecting data from different types of sources, be it social media, cloud, on premise, image, audio, and structured data. The article explains,
“With HP IDOL, you can access, analyze, understand, and act on large amounts of human information from virtually any source… These capabilities make IDOL the OS for human information. With IDOL’s exploratory analytics, you can unlock key ideas, patterns, and concepts in your structured and unstructured data with streamlined processing, tuned for optimal performance. Uncover new opportunities, spot new trends, automate processes, break down silos, mitigate risks, and cut costs to elevate your organizational efficiency and effectiveness by enabling your data to tell you the answers.”
White papers are also available, such as Transitioning to a New Era of Human Information, but first you must register. The article also exclaims over IDOL’s 360-degree viewing platform, ensuring that the information from social media is just as understandable and viewable as anything from a spreadsheet. Unfortunately, this mass-data handling might cause a sluggish system.
