AGOURA HILLS and AMSTERDAM, September 7, 2016 – IBC 2016 – GrayMeta, a leading provider of metadata solutions for content owners, has announced the integration of its technologies with Microsoft Azure to enable users to easily search and find content in all Microsoft Office products, including emails held on their networks. GrayMeta will be demonstrating its unique metadata technologies customised for entertainment and broadcast companies at IBC in Amsterdam, September 9-13, on stand 7.J01 and on the Microsoft stand in hall 15.
GrayMeta’s MetaFarm™, launched at NAB 2016, is an automated metadata extraction management platform that brings value to a company’s assets by giving users easy and accessible access to all hidden metadata attached to any content. By applying cognitive computing technologies, MetaFarm™allows users to find every asset in seconds and enables the monetization of all assets - even those customers didn’t know they had. Users can search for files on their systems in terms they understand. This includes key phrases, faces, logos - even emotions such as angry, happy or sad, and much more.
Tim Stockhaus, CEO, GrayMeta, said: “Our use of Microsoft Azure delivers an advanced search toolset. By combining metadata and machine learning, users will now experience unprecedented productivity and employees can focus their newfound time on growing the business. As machine learning technologies rapidly evolve, new capabilities and avenues for productivity are being added everyday.
