Knowledge Tree

Knowledge Tree

KnowledgeTree, Inc. is a provider of online document management software based in Raleigh, North Carolina. The company also has an office in Cape Town, South Africa. The company's product, also called KnowledgeTree, makes use of the cloud computing platform from Amazon EC2. KnowledgeTree’s features — including workflow, document alerts and version control — are designed to manage business processes around documents in addition to enabling file sharing among teams. The service is available on a subscription basis.

There also used to be a free and open source community edition hosted on sourceforge that was written in PHP and used the Apache Web Server and the application itself. By the fourth quarter of 2012, KnowledgeTree is no longer open source in any meaningful sense. The project page on sourceforge was removed and the community page was redirected to a page advertising the trial of the commercial edition. This pattern is frequently described by the term ASP loophole, where a commercial provider takes the community contributions private based on relevant characteristics of the license.

Famous quotes containing the words knowledge and/or tree:

    Science asks no questions about the ontological pedigree or a priori character of a theory, but is content to judge it by its performance; and it is thus that a knowledge of nature, having all the certainty which the senses are competent to inspire, has been attained—a knowledge which maintains a strict neutrality toward all philosophical systems and concerns itself not with the genesis or a priori grounds of ideas.
    Chauncey Wright (1830–1875)

    The great pines stand at a considerable distance from each other. Each tree grows alone, murmurs alone, thinks alone. They do not intrude upon each other. The Navajos are not much in the habit of giving or of asking help. Their language is not a communicative one, and they never attempt an interchange of personality in speech. Over their forests there is the same inexorable reserve. Each tree has its exalted power to bear.
    Willa Cather (1873–1947)
