In December, KnowledgeLake was recognized in the “20 Most Promising Content Services Platform Solution Providers” by CIOReview, a leading print magazine that helps bridge the gap between enterprise IT vendors and buyers. Gartner defines content services as “a set of services and microservices, embodied either as an integrated product suite or as separate applications that share common APIs and repositories, to exploit diverse content types and to serve multiple constituencies and numerous use cases across an organization.” In layman's terms, content services are just a collection of integrated applications whose purpose is to solve business process problems.

As the first mover in our market with a fully managed service offering (alongside a cloud platform focused specifically on content services), it's an exciting time to be at KnowledgeLake. The KnowledgeLake business model offers an entirely new approach to content services—one that allows organizations to focus on their business rather than painstakingly administering software and servers. With a new year ahead and many changes afoot, we are excited to see where the content services marketplace takes us.
