TripleMap allows users to search and analyze data entities and their associations in Entagen's proprietary high-performance Extera technology. Extera aggregates structured and unstructured data and continuously scans both internal and external data sources to build a master data graph across the enterprise. Users explore and share this information visually by creating dynamic knowledge maps that capture associations between entities. TripleMap & Extera can be securely deployed within an organization's firewall or hosted in the cloud.
