<h1 class="title">Overview about Apache Stanbol (incubating)</h1>
- <p>Apache Stanbol (currently in <a
href="http://incubator.apache.org">incubating</a>) provides a set of reusable
components for semantic content management. For users it is important to note
that Stanbol is NOT a semantic CMS by it own. It is designed to provide
semantic services for existing content management.</p>

semantic technologies to current CMS Systems." /></p>
-<p>However while Apache Stanbol was build with CMS in mind it can also be used
in different usage scenarios including: Direct usage from web applications
(e.g. for Tag extraction/suggestion; or text completion in search fields),
'smart' Content workflows or email routing based on extracted Entities/Topics,

Stanbol by means of describing typical usage scenarios.</p>

+ <p>Apache Stanbol (currently <a

components for semantic content management. It is important to note that
Stanbol itself is NOT a semantic CMS. It extends existing CMSs with a number of
semantic services.</p>

<h3 id="content-enhancement">Content Enhancement</h3>
-<p>Extracting information of parsed content is the most common use case
forApache Stanbol. For that users need to use the <a
href="docs/trunk/enhancer/enhancerrest.html">RESTful API</a> of the Stanbol
Enhancer to send their Content to Stanbol. The Enhancer that uses its <a
href="doc/trunk/enhancer/engines">Semantic Engines</a> to analyze the parsed
Content. Extracted information are represented as RDF and returned in the
Response of the Enhancement Request. For more Information about how to use the
Stanbol Enhancer for Enhancing your Content please see this <a
href="docs/trunk/contentenhancement.html">Usage Scenario</a>. </p>
-<p>This service is intended to be used by Content Management Systems to
extract information from managed content. Those information can than be used to
improve search and navigation. However Enhancement Results can be also used to
support Content Editors e.g. by suggesting Tags or by allowing them to directly
interact with Entities mentioned in the Text as shown in the following
figure.</p>

Text. Because of this Apache Stanbol can be customized with Domain specific
data as shown by the right hand figure for the Life Science domain. </p>
-<p>For doing so users can either use the Stanbol Entityhub to manage their
vocabulary or import existing data into the Entityhub. The usage scenario <a

configured to use <a href="docs/trunk/customvocabulary.html">custom
vocabularies</a>. This <a href="docs/trunk/enhancer/engines/list.html">List of

-<p>Apache Stanbol is built with multi lingually in mind. All components do
support multi lingually however user need to be aware the not all features are
available in all languages. Especially the Stanbol Enhancer depends on the
availability of Natural Language Processing (NLP) functionality for given
languages. Also the linking to Entities requires users to provide language
specific labels. For detailed information please see the usage scenario about
