About Open CSP

With Open CSP organizations can create a MediaWiki based Information and Productivity platform for their employees, partners, members and customers.

Open CSP is:

• a vision on open source MediaWiki based Information and Productivity platforms
• an open source software and content bundle for MediaWiki
• an integrated solution for Information and Productivity platforms

The integrated solution

Open CSP provides an integrated solution of high quality. The Open CSP have been carefully selected and developed to work together and create a high quality, flexible framework.

Open CSP provides out-of-the-box features that give you a flying start. On top of that, there is a growing number of Open CSP compatible modules. Its flexibility and productivity for custom solutions enables you to create a platform that seamlessly supports your knowledge and operational processes.

Wikibase Solutions is experienced in developing, delivering and hosting advanced solutions based on Open CSP. Our solutions provide the features you want, and just as important: we develop and delivery it your way.

Some things that our enterprise customers find important:

• Scrum development approach with two-week sprints
• Development, Testing and QA before deploying to production
• Integration with IAM solutions such as Microsoft AD or Okta
• ISO 27001 compliant internal processes

There is no doubt that the MediaWiki platform is awesome and provides many features that are of great benefit for large organizations. The result is a platform that is reliable, secure, flexible and scalable - and it is open source.

Open CSP adds some important building blocks to MediaWiki.

• Semantic MediaWiki with Elasticsearch adds scalable database features. It turns the platform into a flexible database system
• Faceted search, enabled by Elasticsearch. State of the art, out-of-the-box search features
• Powerful and flexible forms
• Organize content in spaces
• Authentication via Azure Active Directory
• Exchange of content between platforms
• Integration with an open source Neo4J graph database
• Enterprise ready permissions framework (under construction)

Open CSP workspace

A workspace based on Open CSP guarantees optimal integration of content, records and documents.

Its flexibility enables user feedback leading to meaningful changes in a short time. This increases the support base of the platform. The result is a positive vicious circle of improved use and further development.

Step by step the Open CSP workspace supports more and more daily processes of your teams and co-workers.

Wikibase Solutions is constantly innovating and improving the Open CSP framework. Currently the focus is on integration of MediaWiki with Neo4J. Neo4J is a state of the art open source graph database. Neo4J can in the future be used next to, or as a replacement of, Semantic MediaWiki. There are two big opportunities when using Neo4J:

• Graph database implementation Since Neo4J is a graph database the integration with Neo4J is more natural and less complex. This is a good basis for further enhancements.

• Wiki as an interface Currently Semantic MediaWiki has the same scope as the wiki. Data in the wiki is stored as properties, hence there is no integrated world outside the wiki. With Neo4J, in addition to the wiki-data being stored in Neo4J, the wiki can act as a UI to Neo4J. This enables the wiki to be part of an advanced knowledge graph.

Wikibase Solutions is in the process of implementing integration scenarios. Please contact us if you are interested in the subject.
