DESCRIPTION:Click for Latest Location Information: http://edw2015.dataversity.net/sessionPop.cfm?confid=87&proposalid=7205\nA wide variety of applications — from land management to organization management, from gun registries to registries of pipeline components — require the ongoing recording, revision, distribution, querying, reporting, and analysis of information.  Most often such systems are built by systems integrators starting from a relational DBMS and/or a GIS, with substantial additional software development and at costs in the tens of millions of dollars or more.\nRegistry Platforms are information management systems, meaning they provide sufficient abstraction to directly represent the objects of interest in the application domain.  Registry Platforms provide high level constructs like objects, type systems, taxonomies, collections, and relationships. They fully support geospatial information and many other complex types.\nRegistry Platforms provide:\ninformation governance such as application level audit trails, automated notification\nlife cycle status management, independent of the content model\nsecure, automated, fine grained, incremental information distribution to other platforms or external databases\nand they can act as information distributors, aggregators, and virtual data stores\nBuilding a registry, or other enterprise information management system on a Registry Platform is faster, less expensive and provides far more features to your customers than any other starting point.
