The terminology servers can import data from the SNOMED CT release packages and make the information available to browsers or electronic medical records with convenient APIs that implement best practices in terminology management, including search and sorting algorithms, support for ECL, language filters, hierarchy navigation, etc. Using terminology servers saves the time of implementing these features from scratch starting from the plain text files, and they can provide standardized APIs that simplify the integration into en user applications.
