1. A method for semantically enriching content for semantic navigation, the method comprising:
ingesting content from a plurality of data sources, the ingesting performed by an ingestion broker of a semantic navigation system operating on at least one server machine;
operating a semantic index, the operating performed by an engine of the semantic navigation system, the semantic index supporting indexing by the engine, the indexing combining features and functions of both keyword indexing and semantic indexing;
determining semantic metadata from the content ingested by the ingestion broker from the plurality of data sources, the determining performed by a content analytics module operatively connected to the engine;
enriching the content with the semantic metadata determined by the content analytics module, the enriching performed by a semantic annotator, wherein the enriching the content includes creating a first semantic facet from the semantic metadata;
storing the semantic metadata in the semantic index, the storing performed by the engine, the content enriched with the semantic metadata searchable via the semantic index;
receiving, by the semantic navigation system, a search query from a client application operating on a client computer;
retrieving results from the semantic index responsive to the search query, the retrieving performed by a retrieval process of the semantic navigation system, wherein the results include the first semantic facet created from the semantic metadata at the enriching; and
responsive to the search query, presenting faceted search results, the presenting including, responsive to the search query, instantiating a second semantic facet from the semantic metadata, the faceted search results including the first semantic facet of the results and the second semantic facet instantiated from the semantic metadata at the presenting responsive to the search query.
