Contents

DBGallery enables users to centrally store, manage, catalog, archive, and securely share image, video, and document files. It facilitates version control, detects duplicates, and offers an intuitive and advanced search functionality, making assets easily accessible to all users. It takes advantage of current AI technologies to automatically identify objects in images and facilitates custom-trained AI models. Additionally, DBGallery provides workflow management, [2] an activity audit trail, [3] and other collaborative features that foster a productive environment for both internal and external stakeholders of an organization.

History

DBGallery's first public release was December 2007. Since then each year has seen continuous enhancements. 2013 added support for additional non-English languages in its meta-data. 2014 added support for creating custom data fields for tagging and search. In 2015 included the ability to auto-tag images using Reverse Geocoding. 2018 added artificial intelligence (AI) image recognition as a further addition to auto-tagging. March 2020 added complete image collection management via the web (e.g. file and folder drag and drop), a new collection dashboard, custom data layouts, and an improved audit trail. 2021 saw user experience improvements provided by improved styling and performance enhancements.

Version 12 was released in October 2021. It added the ability to upload unlimited file sizes and made significant performance improvements for very large collections. [4] June 2022 saw the release of a global duplicate images search. In late 2022, DBGallery began offering significantly reduced cloud storage cost, at a third of its previous prices, which played into its recent high-volume/high-capacity capabilities and its clients' subsequent demand for additional storage. [5] 2023 saw improvements in user and role management, added app options, and improved custom-trained object detection. [6]
