Content Rationalization
One of the core operations of IDOL is the ability to conceptually rate the similarity of two or more documents. When content is created or indexed, IDOL automatically detects whether the information already exists in the system and can trigger the appropriate action, automating the rationalization of content and reducing duplication of both storage and effort.
For example, if this operation is performed at content creation time, the author may be alerted to the existence of duplicate files, providing the opportunity to aggregate the two sources. Alternatively, this detection can be executed when the data is spidered and indexed. If the content of the document imported is similar to that of another file already analyzed by IDOL, only one will be kept within the index. This is particularly useful when spidering multiple websites or document management servers that contain an overlap of information, avoiding search results filled with many near-identical pages.
IDOL also offers semi-automatic approaches to content rationalization. The system can automatically suggest similar documents within a user interface, allowing administrators to manually choose the exact data that is to be deleted.
