Many enterprise organizations have spent years and hundreds of thousands of dollars building proprietary Translation Memory (TM) databases, Gettext .po files, and XLIFF dictionaries with traditional agencies. Moving to an automated edge architecture should never mean throwing that valuable work away.
Importing historical translation memories
TranslateBeam TDN provides direct ingestion endpoints for standard translation interchange formats:
- TMX (Translation Memory eXchange): Ingests source/target pairs directly into the MariaDB L2 persistent dictionary.
- Gettext (
.po/.mo): Automatically extracts translated strings and registers them as verified manual overrides. - CSV / JSON Key-Value Catalogs: Bulk upload terminology lists in seconds via the Customer Dashboard.
Imported strings receive top priority over machine-generated translations, ensuring your historical human edits remain intact from day one.
