In today’s rapidly evolving tech landscape, AI has emerged as the hottest topic of 2023. Generative AI, like ChatGPT, has captivated the world, empowering individuals and organizations with their unprecedented use cases that seem to grow exponentially by the minute.

AI is a fundamental element of BigID’s DNA. Using AI in the right way can accelerate security operations, streamline privacy compliance, and provide you with accurate and invaluable insights into your data environment. And now, you can benefit from adaptive AI inside BigID: introducing BigAI, the first AI-augmented co-pilot for data discovery, classification, cloud data security, DSPM, privacy management, governance, and more.

BigAI is your co-pilot that helps improve the quality of your data environments and get value faster. BigAI can automatically give “friendlier” names to your data tables and columns to improve data accuracy and interpretation. Many tables at times use given or default names that are composed of complex acronyms or abbreviations, which makes it hard to understand the table’s true meaning and purpose. The concept of using friendlier names to find and interpret data is based on the idea that using descriptive and standardized names for data elements improves your data understanding and analysis. When data tables and columns are given meaningful and consistent names, it becomes easier for users to search, interpret, and make sense of the data.

By indexing these friendly names, you can gather similar results that may have originally been labeled with alternative abbreviations or variations. For example, if data elements were labeled as “CUST ACCT” or “CUSTOM ACCNT,” indexing them with a friendly name like “Customer Account” allows you to gather all related data under one standardized name, even if the original labels were different. This helps in data aggregation, analysis, and reporting, as users can confidently search for and compare data using consistent and meaningful names.

This concept is also a form of data clustering, where data elements with similar meanings are grouped together under a standardized name. Just like how clustering algorithms group data points based on their similarities, using friendly names for data elements helps to cluster and standardize data based on their true semantic meaning or context.

Document Clustering Made Easy

Document clustering groups documents with similar topics or content together, promoting better data governance and management practices. This helps you improve data quality and decision-making by making it easier to access relevant information quickly. BigAI takes it one step further by automatically giving each cluster a friendly name and even a short description summarizing the documents inside.

Cluster titles are automatically generated based on the documents contained within each cluster, allowing for easy indexing and searching through metadata. This meta-clustering technique adds more semantics to your search, making it easier to find exactly what you need. You can even search for clusters by the friendly titles BigAI generates, adding a layer of organization to your data management practices. Overall, utilizing document clustering can greatly improve your productivity and efficiency when working with large amounts of data and documents.
