Why "Ontology" Will Be A Big Word In Your Company's Future

Who's doing this? 75% of the Fortune 500 companies have some kind of smart data or semantics program underway, most under the banner of 360 initiatives, comprehensive enterprise data systems, or machine learning/data science projects. Amazon has recently added linked data capabilities to their AWS infrastructure with the Neptune project, and social media giants have built their entire data infrastructure around smart ontological data. Moreover, China, Japan, England, the OECD, and the United States have all moved critical data resources into semantic form, and semantics has become one of the hottest areas for investment banks such as Wells Fargo, Morgan Stanley, Citigroup, Goldman Sachs and others. It even ties into such cutting edge technologies as Blockchain and the Internet of Things.
