PoolParty PowerTagging and sOnr are add-ons for Atlassian Confluence. They provide features to annotate and categorize content automatically. sOnr is a collaborative tool for market observer and trend scouts. User benefit from semantic search, automatic text analysis, entity extraction, sentiment analysis, faceted search and content recommendation. Its basis is built by thesauri and controlled vocabularies which are maintained with PoolParty Server.

7. PowerTagging for Confluence
Automatic tagging
based on thesauri
Automatic linking
to similar documents
PowerTagging supports the creation and maintenance of consistent
semantic metadata, based on controlled enterprise vocabularies.

8. Why PowerTagging?
Consistent tagging:
automatic use of synonyms
Semantic search
Precise content recommendation

9. Similar content macros
https://sonr.semantic-web.at/display/BLOG/Solectria+Renewables+solar+panels+chosen+for+N+American+airport+project
Related content from Wikipedia & from the same space or another space is
inserted automatically, based on the text analysis of the current page.
Content analysis builds the basis for
recommendation of / linking to other content

10. PowerTagging configuration
Connect with PoolParty Server
(cloud or on-premises)
Set global limits for PowerTagging,
like max. number of tags
Select thesauri and languages
to be used for PowerTagging
Run batch jobs like indexing of whole spaces

11. sOnr webmining
sOnr is the collaborative solution for market observers

12. Why sOnr webmining?
 Web mining fully integrated with Confluence
 Automatic content harvesting from the web (sOnr agents)
 Collaborative marketing monitoring: harvested content can be tagged,
commented, flagged, liked, etc.
 Internal Twitter-like system: create your own sOnr ping!
 Highly precise automatic classification of content (based on taxonomies
and thesauri)
 Semantic search & Watchdogs (configurable search queries)
 Search for similar content
 Trend analysis
sOnr is a social and a semantic platform

13. sOnr features
Set agents to mine the web
Use watchdogs to filter information
Seach factes
Autocomplete &
query expansion
Good news / bad news
recogition
Similarity search
Trend analysis
Harvested content
is pushed into Confluence and
can be used for further actions

14. sOnr and its 3 content types
sOnr agents generate content automtically
sOnr generates topic pages as mash-ups dynamically (coming soon)
Users generate sOnr pings (similar to twitter)

15. sOnr: collaborative web mining
Like with any other content from Confluence, sOnr
seach results can be tagged, liked, commented,
forwarded, watched etc.

16. Create sOnr pings: enterprise ‘twitter’

17. FAQs #1
 Can I use PowerTagging for my already exisiting spaces?
 Yes, whole spaces can be semantically indexed with
PowerTagging in a batch mode
 What if changes are made on the taxonomy side?
 New labels or changes made on the labels can be synced
automatically with the tags used within Confluence
 For which versions of Confluence does PowerTagging
work?
 At the moment, it works for 5.0 – 5.1.5
 Does PowerTagging index and annotate only the pages or
also the attachments?
 Both is analyzed and annotated

18. FAQs #2
 How does PowerTagging content recommendation work?
 There are two macros which can be used to show similar
documents (to a given page) from any other space, or also
related content from Wikipedia. This automatic recommendation
is based on the ‘semantic footprint’ of a page which was
calculated in the background when adding a page.
 Are there any limits regarding size?
 PowerTagging can handle around 4 pages per second when
indexing whole spaces. No other limits are known.
 Is there a free version of PowerTagging?
 Yes, some pre-installed thesauri and extractors can be used for
the free version of PowerTagging. When a customized module for
text analysis is needed, then two versions can be obtained: cloud
service and on-premises variant.
 Can I use different thesauri for different spaces?
 Yes, for each space another thesaurus can be used for
PowerTagging of your Confluence content.

19. FAQs #3
 Is PowerTagging using its own search engine?
 No, PowerTagging is fully integrated with Confluence’s internal
(Lucene) search engine, whereas sOnr installs its own (Solr
based) search engine to provide advanced search facilities
like faceted search
 What if changes are made on the taxonomy side?
 New labels or changes made on the labels can be synced
automatically with the tags used within Confluence
 For which versions of Confluence does PowerTagging
work?
 At the moment, it works for 5.0 – 5.1.5
 Does PowerTagging index and annotate only the pages or
also the attachments?
 Both is analyzed and annotated

20. FAQs #4
 Can I edit the tags which were created by PowerTagging?
 Yes, the user can improve the automatically generated tags.
Therefore an auto-complete function is provided to use labels
rather from the controlled vocabulary than free tags.
 Do I need sOnr to run PowerTagging?
 No. PowerTagging can be operated independently from sOnr.
Already created taxonomies can be used by both add-ons.
 Can I operate sOnr without PowerTagging?
 No, sOnr is an optional additional module for PowerTagging
customers. It is installed together with PowerTagging.
 Can PowerTagging handle multilinguality?
 Yes, for each space another thesaurus and therefore another
language can be used.
