 • Practical approaches for implementing and deploying Progress Semaphore modeling into your organizational ecosystems

How to Use Semantic Modeling to Unify Business Language

For business leaders looking to enhance their data, analytics and AI initiatives, adopting a structured methodology for handling data while considering the complexities of language and interpretation is essential. This is where business semantic layers add value, revolutionizing how businesses interact and work with enterprise data. 

Are you ready to immerse yourself in the fascinating world of semantic layers? 
During this webinar, you will learn about: 

The current business landscape and challenges
The essence, components and purpose of semantic layers 
Business use cases and applications for semantic layers 
Advantages of using semantic layers to leverage enterprise content  
Approaches for implementing a semantic layer  
Technology considerations for semantic layer use

Building a Semantic Layer for the Modern Data Stack: Connecting Knowledge and Data Silos

Health and Human Services agencies have a wealth of data but often struggle with how to access and leverage the data to inform program and practice decisions at all levels of the agency.  

Join us for an interactive webinar that delves into the critical challenges faced by today’s Health and Human Services (HHS) state government agencies. This session will focus on the complexities of compliance, service-delivery quality, risk management and program integrity across various HHS programs. We’ll give an overview of how our advanced data management solutions offer a more robust, efficient way to interrogate data for meaningful results while improving  service delivery and accountability. 

Watch our on-demand webinar where our experts will explore several use cases with real-life examples from US HHS agencies that have successfully managed to:

• Maintain program integrity and facilitate effective and ethical use of resources across HHS programs 
• Elevate the quality of public service delivery by enabling faster, more accurate data analysis 
• Improve reporting and decision-making by breaking down silos and enabling a holistic view of agency operations 
• Stay ahead of regulatory requirements through enhanced compliance and risk management practices  
• Maximize revenue from federal funding streams and optimize its use

Empowering Human and Health Services Agencies to Deliver Better Outcomes

In the age of information overload, effectively managing and organizing unstructured data is a significant challenge for enterprises using content management platforms like Microsoft SharePoint. To enhance the organization and retrieval of content in SharePoint, businesses need to leverage natural language processing (NLP) and semantic techniques to analyze documents, automatically determine content types and apply relevant metadata tags.

During this session, we will explore the fundamental principles of semantic technology and its integration with Microsoft SharePoint. Join us to learn how to:

• Enhance document discoverability through precise tagging
• Streamline workflows by automating document classification
• Improve compliance and governance through better content management practices

Don’t miss this opportunity to enhance your document management strategy, deepen your understanding of semantic technologies and explore practical applications within your SharePoint environments.

Using Semantic Technologies to Better Leverage SharePoint Documents

The ability to integrate data is vital for organizations that rely on Salesforce to power their business. But accessing that data within Salesforce can be a challenge without the right data connectivity.

Join experts from Salesforce, Progress and Salesforce Ben as they discuss how to:
• Leverage Salesforce Connect to elevate your business    
• Work within industry standards to maintain security and support data privacy
• Provide Salesforce users the ability to utilize external data without moving it

How to (Properly) Access External Data Within Salesforce

Government agencies across the world are required to share information with others. This includes other agencies, their constituents and even their own departments. But what happens when these groups use different terminologies to describe the same thing? It’s like two people talking in two different languages. Now multiply that by hundreds of potentially different data “languages” and hundreds of data repositories—and the problem gets exponentially more complicated. 

This is a core contributor to the classic data silo problem that has plagued public and private entities since the dawn of the information age. Establishing relationships between these various data vocabularies is a function of the information science field known as semantics. Applying a semantic approach to organizational data can quickly knock down these data silos—internally and externally—and streamline your path to mission success. 

Join Stephen Reed to learn how agencies are modernising their architecture by adopting a semantic approach to deliver data agility, flexibility and scalability for their mission needs. During the webinar, you will:

• Explore common causes of data silos as well as signs you might have them within your organisation
• Examine how data silos create a barrier to information sharing and visibility
• Discover how taking a semantic approach to your data with Progress Semaphore can help remediate these issues
• Review several public sector use cases where semantics have solved the data-silo challenge
• See how Progress Semaphore bridges the data language gap in a live demonstration
