Application Overview

LexEVS includes the following components:
...

---|
...
The name LexEVS highlights the merging of LexGrid, LexBIG, and EVS technologies and designates an entire suite of tools. In this suite, LexGrid is the underlying model for standard storage of controlled vocabularies and ontologies. The LexBIG API is the set of services that EVS adapters use to store and retrieve terminology metadata. LexEVS APIs are a combination of convenience methods and the LexBIG API (combining LexBIG and the EVS adapters into one set of services). For detailed information, refer to the LexEVS architecture overview.
After you have a chance to get familiar with the LexEVS suite, consider looking through the LexEVS 6.1 Functionality Overview. This lays out everything that can be done from a developer's or ontologist's point of view.
Installation and Downloads
The installation overview provides an introduction to the different environments that can be installed. Refer to the [LexEVS:LexEVS 6.x Installation Guide] for more information.
The LexEVS 6.1 Installation Options identify the download files for each LexEVS environment that can be installed (Local Runtime, Distributed, and Grid Services).
The LexEVS Widget Library lists many widgets that have been developed for use by particular customers. These widgets have been found to be potentially useful to a wider audience. Each widget has a description for you to use in deciding if you'd like to dig deeper and find out the usefulness of the widget in your application.
Please visit the FAQs especially if you are new to LexEVS.
