What we add

Counted facts

A dictionary definition doesn't say how often a term is actually used. This counts it across the graph -- articles that mention it, open source projects tagged with it, and the organizations tagged with it, listed here alongside the count. A term has no peer companies, and nothing here claims otherwise.

Organizations tagged 56 Organizations 1-IX LLC, 8 Route, ADS Assembly Data System S.p.A., Antelma, AppSynergy, Astrea, AviaNet, Bring Your Own Data (BYOD), BV Tech, C3Spectra, Congiv, Connetta, Creatio, DataFelix, Dataware, Depth First, Diadema, DJ Data, Eldorado Technology, Epiclink Related terms
