The XKS Family of Knowledge Servers

If you need to retrieve data, get a database. If you need knowledge discovery, get HIGHFLEET's XKS™.

Our eXtensible Knowledge Server Family (the XKS™) makes it easy for users to get the powerful knowledge discovery system that fits their requirements. With the ability to use relational data stores of different types, the XKS™ forms a family of ontology-based deductive databases to suite customers' needs.

We offer 3 scales of XKS:

  • XKS10k – An inexpensive but fully featured deductive database for prototyping your implementation. The XKS10k is limited to 10,000 assertions.
  • XKS500k – Ideal for medium-sized implementations or for those stepping up from prototype to working test implementation. The XKS500k is limited to 500,000 assertions.
  • XKS E – Intended for full-scale enterprise implementations. The XKS E starts at 2,000,000 assertions and can be customized to suite customer requirements. Each is very competitively priced, full-featured and supported with our standard maintenance agreements.

  • Maximum Flexibility for All Applications - The XKS™ gives unprecedented flexibility for our customers, since a variety of relational data stores can be employed to suit project requirements for performance, scale and portability -- and we can take advantage of the customer’s existing database licensing.
  • Ease of Use – Ask About Something, not just For Something - Thanks to its inherent high-fidelity model and extensive inference capability, users new to the system or new to the domain can make useful queries without extensive training. You don't have to know exactly where you're going to get started.
  • Hand Held Devices to Enterprise Systems - HIGHFLEET’s XKS™ Family can be used for every application from hand held devices to large-scale enterprise systems with large data sets and many simultaneous queries.
  • Scalable - Our XKS™ model also permits a Virtual Knowledge Server Architecture whereby multiple XKS instances all utilize the same persistence store, giving extremely high rate query access.
  • The XKS™ Functional Components
    • the Server Presentation Layer, our API interface,
    • the Semantic Query Optimizer assures excellent performance on complex query,
    • our Inference Engine (PiQuE Engine) provides optimized massively parallel query processing,
    • Persistence Store type is based on customer need.
