挑战

Warrior Gateway, a nonprofit organization, aimed to create the G.I. Network as a single source of truth connecting veterans to the right support services. However, the existence of so many resources alongside complex Veterans Administration and Department of Defense regulations has created an overwhelming maze that vets must navigate to find basic information about healthcare, education, housing, and employment resources available to them. The challenges included bringing together data from multiple sources, launching resources quickly, and custom application development with limited internal resources.

关于客户

Warrior Gateway is a nonprofit organization that connects servicemembers and veterans to each other, their local communities and a wealth of knowledge through a virtual community center at warriorgateway.org. Warrior Gateway provides a resource directory known as the G.I. Network. This service connects users with education, employment, health and wellness programs from 220,000 service providers, as well as veteran-specific job opportunities. The G.I. Network also features a community-centric blog focused on making the transition back to civilian life as seamless as possible. Since 2012, the G.I. Network has helped over 50,000 servicemembers and veterans return home for good.

解决方案

Warrior Gateway chose the MarkLogic database as the foundation of the G.I. Network for its ability to bring together information from a diverse range of resources and make it available to veterans in different formats. The MarkLogic Enterprise NoSQL database platform allows the G.I. Network to capture, store, and analyze a diverse range of ever-changing, high volume content in an open access shareable environment enabling developers to discover the shape and dimensions of data, quickly assess trends and patterns, and explore data more naturally. The G.I. Network is now able to give various front-line veteran service organizations direct access to a constantly updated resource directory that they can easily display on their own sites.

运营影响

Faster Access to Information: Warrior Gateway and the G.I. Network are able to ingest large volumes of diverse data types and attain high performance for batch and interactive data processing to ensure that veterans reach the resources they need.
Rapid Deployment: WarriorGateway.org was up and running within 40 days, while the G.I. Network is continually evolving. MarkLogic API's and reference implementation provide high performance, high capacity database with architecture designed for easy integration and fast development of powerful applications.
Easy Integration with Other Technology: An open source content management system was easily integrated into MarkLogic to create an open portal that could be updated independently of the database.
