Autonomy Firmware Technologies Deal

December 8, 2008

On December 3, 2008, Autonomy said that it had inked a deal with Firmware Technologies, an Australian company. Firmware has an OEM deal for Autonomy’s IDOL (Intelligent Data Operating Layer). Firmware will use IDOL for search and content processing in Firmware’s vistime product. The enterprise version of vistime is, according to the company’s Web site delivers “virtual meetings”. In addition,

With the Enterprise Edition you receive a customized, integrated enterprise solution that you can use for a variety of purposes: virtual meetings can replace traveling and accelerate decision-making processes, support becomes more efficient, Internet-based informational events reach large numbers of participants and target groups like journalists, customers, employees, and partners.

Autonomy has more than 350 OEM customers, according to Stouffer Egan, CEO of Autonomy, Inc. A number of search and content processing vendors are pursuing OEM deals. The idea is to make search available to users, or what I call a “just there” implementation.
