Maturity Model
The Enterprise Knowledge Graph Maturity Model (EKG/MM) is the industry-standard definition of the capabilities required for an enterprise knowledge graph. It establishes standard criteria for measuring progress and sets out the practical questions that all involved stakeholders ask to ensure trust, confidence, and usage flexibility of data. Each capability area provides a business summary denoting its importance, a definition of the added value from semantic standards and scoring criteria based on five levels of defined maturity.
The Foundation hosts open working sessions to debate the contents toward the achievement of consensus.

EKGF has established three Maturity Model working groups – one on defining the EKG business pillar, one on reviewing the draft of the EKG/MM data pillar (starting with data architecture), and Baseline research (starting with EKG technology). Please join the conversation and contribute to the EKG body of knowledge. The links to join are below.
