In this paper, we discuss some implementation and data processing challenges we encountered while developing a new multilingual version of DBpedia Spotlight that is faster, more accurate and easier to configure. We compare our solution to the previous system, considering time performance, space requirements and accuracy in the context of the Dutch and English languages. Additionally, we report results for 9 additional languages among the largest Wikipedias. Finally, we present challenges and experiences to foment the discussion with other developers interested in recognition and disambiguation of entities in natural language text. %@ 978-1-4503-1972-0
