Knowage is the full capabilities open source suite for modern business analytics over traditional sources and big data systems. Its features, such as data federation, mash-up, data/text mining and advanced data visualization, give comprehensive support to rich and multi-source data analysis. The suite is composed of several modules, each one conceived for a specific analytical domain. They can be used individually as complete solution for a certain task, or combined with one another to ensure full coverage of user’ requirements.
Knowage is now available on FIWARE Marketplace as FIWARE-ready software enabler, being fully compliant with FIWARE architecture and GEs. For more information check the FIWARE Marketplace entry for Knowage.
