This is also a problem for organizations that want to use the UMLS dictionary 
but have compliance and data security concerns. My understanding is that only 
credentials go out and no packets of other sensitive information are exiting 
(right?) through an API but this is not always clear from documentation.

Subject: [EXTERNAL] AE for Non UMLS Dictionary

Hello,

Are there any Analysis Engine available for Non UMLS dictionary ?

Use case is for our application, if Internet connection is not available the 
pipeline (Specifically DefaultJcasTermAnnotator AE) will fail as UMLS user ID 
authentication will not happen.
So as an alternative I want to have another AE that does not depend on UMLS 
authentication, as a failsafe to the one that relies on connectivity.

I understand the annotation would be different and "lower quality" (less 
useful) from the UMLS dictionary dependent one.

Regards,
