Exalead: Enterprise Search Heats Up

June 9, 2008

Exalead, founded by former AltaVista.com guru, François Bourdoncle named a US president for the privately-held search and content processing company. Paul Doscher will work from Exalead’s San Francisco office. Mr. Doscher is an experienced executive. He will tackle Exalead’s OEM strategy, assist the online business market launch, and consolidate the firm’s activities in in business-to-business markets.

Mr. Doscher joins Exalead from Jaspersoft, which under his management became the worldwide leader in the open source business intelligence market. This expertise combined with nearly thirty years experience in the IT industry at companies including VMware and Oracle, adds muscle to the fast-growing Exalead.

Exalead has been growing at double-digit rates for the last two years. Offering its platform exalead one:search; software which scales from desktop to data center entry level points, Exalead enables industrial informational access which incorporates structured and unstructured data as well as internal and external content for individuals and organizations alike to retrieve and utilize effectively.

The firm has a platform that shares many of the characteristics of low-cost scaling and high performance with Google. You can find more information about Exalead here. In my April 2008 study for the Gilbane Group, Exalead was named a “company to watch”.
