Distributed Analytical Search Utilizing Semantic Analysis of Natural Language

摘要

A distributed Analytical search for data irrespective of location, content or format for querying multiple data sources by users who have no foreknowledge of the location or content of the data or metadata. Distributed Analytical Search (DAS) allows a user to pose natural language questions to multiple data stores of both structured and unstructured data of any size simultaneously without the user needing to know anything about the metadata of the source or sources and without any specialized knowledge of SQL or other computing technologies. Natural language queries are translated into machine recognizable queries and sub-queries based on database wrapper and then automatically executed on all or selected nodes in the domain, with the data owner(s) maintaining autonomy over their respective data stores.
