+Applications include extending existing traditional content management systems
with (internal or external) semantic services. Additionally, Apache Stanbol
let's you create new types of content management systems with semantics at
their core. Its main features include:
-- Persistence: services that store (or cache) semantic information and make it
searchable
-- Lifting/Enhancement: services that add semantic information to
ânon-semanticâ pieces of content
-- Knowledge models and reasoning: services that enhance the semantic
information
-- Interaction: intelligent user interface management and generation
+- **Content Enhancement**<br>
+ Services that add semantic information to ânon-semanticâ pieces of
content.
+- **Reasoning**<br>
+ Services that are able to retrieve additional semantic information about the
content based on the semantic information retrieved via content enhancement.
+- **Knowledge Models**<br>
+ Services that are used to define and manipulate the data models (e.g.
ontologies) that are used to store the semantic information.
+- **Persistence**<br>
+ Services that store (or cache) semantic information and make it searchable.
+
+Apache Stanbol features provide the basics to create content management
systems with intelligent user interfaces. Those user interfaces benefit from
the semantic information that can be handled by Apache Stanbol. See the
[documentation](docs/trunk/index.html) and [usage
scenarios](docs/trunk/scenarios.html) pages for more details.
The Apache Stanbol project was initiated by the European R&D project
[IKS](http://www.iks-project.eu) - Interactive Knowledge Stack for small to
medium CMS providers. Some people who are working on the project are
part-funded by the IKS project, as well as by several European SME CMS
providers, who are [adopting Apache
Stanbol](http://wiki.iks-project.eu/index.php/Participants).

### Disclaimer
Apache Stanbol is an effort undergoing incubation at [The Apache Software
Foundation (ASF)](http://apache.org/), sponsored by the [Apache Incubator
PMC](http://incubator.apache.org/). Incubation is required of all newly
accepted projects until a further review indicates that the infrastructure,
communications, and decision making process have stabilized in a manner
consistent with other successful ASF projects. While incubation status is not
necessarily a reflection of the completeness or stability of the code, it does
indicate that the project has yet to be fully endorsed by the ASF.
