Title: Overview about Apache Stanbol (incubating)
Apache Stanbol (currently in [incubating](http://incubator.apache.org))
provides a set of reusable components for semantic content management. For
users it is important to note that Stanbol is NOT a semantic CMS by it own. It
is designed to provide semantic services for existing content management.

+<p style="text-align: center;"><figcaption>Figure 1: Apache
Stanbol is aimed to bring semantic technologies to current CMS Systems.
</figcaption></p>
However while Apache Stanbol was build with CMS in mind it can also be used in
different usage scenarios including: Direct usage from web applications (e.g.
for Tag extraction/suggestion; or text completion in search fields), 'smart'
Content workflows or email routing based on extracted Entities/Topics, ...
The remaining part of this Document provides an overview about Apache Stanbol
by means of describing typical usage scenarios.

### Content Enhancement
-Extracting information of parsed content is the most common usage of Apache
Stanbol.
+Extracting information of parsed content is the most common use case forApache
Stanbol. For that users need to use the [RESTful
API](docs/trunk/enhancer/enhancerrest.html) of the Stanbol Enhancer to send
their Content to Stanbol. The Enhancer that uses its [Semantic
Engines](doc/trunk/enhancer/engines) to analyze the parsed Content. Extracted
information are represented as RDF and returned in the Response of the
Enhancement Request. For more Information about how to use the Stanbol Enhancer
for Enhancing your Content please see this [Usage
Scenario](docs/trunk/contentenhancement.html).
-The Stanbol Enhancer provides a [RESTful
API](docs/trunk/enhancer/enhancerrest.html) that allows to [extract semantic
information](docs/trunk/contentenhancement.html) from parsed Content.

+This service is intended to be used by Content Management Systems to extract
information from managed content. Those information can than be used to improve
search and navigation. However Enhancement Results can be also used to support
users while during content Editing e.g. by suggesting mentioned entities as
Tags or by allowing them to directly interact with mentions within the text as
shown by the next figure.
Results are represented as RDF graph and can be used on the front end e.g. to
improve
[Tagging](docs/trunk/enhancementusage.html#entity-tagging-use-tags-to-relate-you-content-to-persons-places-events)
or even [inline Content
Annotation](docs/trunk/enhancementusage.html#entity-checker-inline-editing-of-content-enhancements).
In the backend extracted information can be used to improve search and content
processing workflows.
