I was planning to use LexEVS to manage my ontologies and terms? Should I switch to CTS2 based implementation? What is the difference?
Actually LexEVS 6.0 has been very close to functionally equivalent to CTS2 specifications. Please note that LexEVS 6.0 APIs are not fully CTS2 compliant but offer identical functionality as compared to most CTS2 services. Following table compares what function CTS2 specifies and whether it is available in LexEVS 6.0 release. Please note that there are additional functions LexEVS 6.0 makes available in addition to what are listed here. To find more about it please click here
