We’re excited to announce a technology partnership integrating metaphactory—our enterprise knowledge graph platform—with the SAP HANA® Cloud Knowledge Graph Engine, with planned availability of metaphactory on the SAP Store in H2 2026.
The integration connects metaphactory's visual semantic modeling and AI-assisted ontology tools directly to HANA Cloud's multi-model database, bringing together the best of both worlds:
-
A high-performant, enterprise-grade multi-model database
-
A powerful, user-friendly knowledge graph modeling and visualization layer
Organizations can now move from connecting and managing data to modeling, exploring, and deriving insights on a single, governed, standards-compliant foundation. The partnership addresses a desire from customers to enable modeling and visual exploration in a consistent workflow, with HANA Cloud storing and querying the knowledge graphs.
metaphactory capabilities now accessible with HANA Cloud include:
-
Visual semantic modeling: A user-friendly interface for creating, extending, and documenting ontologies based on open W3C standards (OWL, SHACL), accessible to both technical and non-technical users.
-
Knowledge discovery and exploration: Rich interactive visualizations, graph exploration and semantic search that let users navigate and make sense of complex relationships without writing queries.
-
Governance and lifecycle management: Versioning, editorial workflows, and collaboration tools that make knowledge graphs production-ready and enterprise-grade.
-
Open standards foundation: Built on RDF, SPARQL, SKOS, OWL and SHACL, ensuring interoperability, reusability, and flexibility across industries and use cases
