The IDOL Platform

Kafka Connector is part of the IDOL platform.

IDOL is a family of products that retrieve, process, and enrich unstructured, semi-structured, and structured information from multiple repositories. It allows you to automate operations across applications and content, to get information to the right people at the right time.

In the IDOL product family, there are four core areas of functionality:

  • IDOL Text. Search, analytics, and data enrichment for unstructured text sources.

  • IDOL Rich Media. Search, analytics, and data enrichment for image, audio, and video sources.

  • IDOL KeyView. File format detection, content extraction, and rendering.

  • IDOL Ingest. Data collection and enrichment.

You can use different IDOL components and solutions from these four areas individually or in combination to solve a variety of business problems.

IDOL aims to help you find all your valuable information, in all its forms, and convert it into useful and usable insight. This might be a simple search application, or a more intelligent system that provides analytics, or automation for handling data and alerting the relevant people.
