Meta Tracker is a powerful desktop-neutral first class object database,
tag/metadata database, search tool and indexer.
Meta Tracker is also extremely fast and super efficient with your systems
memory when compared with some other competing frameworks.
It consists of a common object database that allows entities to have an
almost infinte number of properties, metadata (both embedded/harvested as
well as user definable), a comprehensive database of keywords/tags and
links to other entities.
It provides additional features for file based objects including context
linking and audit trails for a file object.
It has the ability to index, store, harvest metadata. retrieve and search
all types of files and other first class objects.
First class object support includes: Files, Documents, Music, Images,
Videos.
Meta Tracker is the most powerful open source metadata database and
indexer framework currently available and because it is built around a
combination indexer and sql database and not a dedicated indexer it has
much more powerful use cases:
* Provide search and indexing facilities similiar to those on other
systems
* Common database storage for all first class objects (EG a common
music/photo/contacts/email/bookmarks/history database) complete with
additional metadata and tags/keywords
* Comprehensive one stop solution for all applications needing an
object database, powerful search (via RDF Query), first class methods,
related metadata and user definable metadata/tags
* Can provide a full semantic desktop with metadata everywhere
* Can provide powerful criteria based searching suitable for creating
smart file dialogs and vfolder systems
* Can provide a more intelligent desktop using statistical metadata
The software is licensed under the GPLv2.
