OpenText: A Leader in Knowledge Discovery

OpenText, a global leader in secure information management for AI applications, has recently been recognized as a leader in the 2025 IDC MarketScape report for "Worldwide General-Purpose Knowledge Discovery Software". This recognition underscores OpenText's commitment to providing innovative solutions that help organizations extract valuable insights from complex datasets.

In its announcement, OpenText highlighted its roadmap for the OpenText AI Data Platform, which positions Knowledge Discovery at its core. This platform is designed to assist customers in navigating through vast and intricate datasets, enabling them to derive actionable insights. OpenText aims to build an open and integrated data and AI framework, complete with an extensive suite of services that allow organizations to harness both structured and unstructured data seamlessly.

One of the standout modules currently available is the OpenText Knowledge Discovery. This scalable platform, powered by AI, supports organizations in organizing, classifying, labeling, and securing their content. By doing so, businesses can visualize dark data, uphold privacy, and enhance content metadata. Ultimately, this empowers enterprises to significantly bolster their readiness for AI adoption and implement safe, compliant, and accurate generative AI strategies.

The IDC MarketScape report aptly recommends that companies in need of advanced scalability and real-time knowledge discovery from multiple repositories and rich media consider OpenText. It further emphasizes that OpenText Knowledge Discovery appeals to customers who require end-to-end information management solutions where governance and regulatory compliance are critical concerns.

As the volume and complexity of unstructured data within organizations continue to grow, intelligent platforms like OpenText Knowledge Discovery become vital in unlocking value, maintaining security, and making significant strides towards large-scale AI transformations. This platform enhances content management, archiving, and digital asset management through enriched metadata, governance, and AI-driven insights. With integrated search, generative AI-based natural language processing, visualization, and a deep understanding of video and audio content, OpenText Knowledge Discovery offers comprehensive visibility across all types and sources of content.

A prime example of this in action is Media Info Groep, which leverages OpenText Knowledge Discovery for tone and sentiment analysis across an extensive repository of 250 million documents. The company manages an integrated processing layer that provides contextual insights from both structured and unstructured data, handling 35,000 search requests every 15 minutes.

Michael Cybala, Senior Vice President of Engineering at OpenText, remarked, "The volume of content that organizations hold has never been greater, and the expectations from customers for insights from this data are higher than ever. The productivity and understanding capabilities of OpenText Knowledge Discovery transform content into a strategic asset, enabling our clients to achieve higher levels of AI readiness and productivity while expanding a secure foundation for effective generative AI use cases."
