Forward Leaning Software Engineer

Under most IT scenarios, what you know about your domain and the data that fills in that understanding are locked up in your data storage systems, table metadata, object-relational mapping layers, and software implementations. Knowledge Graphs are a new name and vision for self-describing, semantically-meaningful projections of your understanding using machine-processable, network-friendly protocols. Tied to an architecture that has proven itself for over 30 years as a our definition of scale and the ability to absorb change, Knowledge Graphs are a crucial new tool for building long-lasting business value without having to change much about what you do.
