Ardentia Search Now Connexica
July 29, 2011
Short honk: We were updating the Overflight links today and noted that Ardentia Search which had positioned itself as a “business intelligence company” is now redirecting to Connexica.com. The About Us page references Ardentia Search. The managing director of the company is Richard Lewis. Here’s the important bit:
As CTO at Ardentia, [Richard Lewis] was responsible for the development of BI and Data Warehouse products which are now used in over 100 NHS organizations as well as providing analysis and extract services for the National Program for IT. Richard founded Connexica in 2006 by buying the IPR for his latest BI and search product from Ardentia.
If you don’t recall the Ardentia system, here’s a block diagram I unearthed from the Overflight archive:
A number of search and content processing companies are repositioning, not disappearing.

Hello Stephen,
Ardentia Search was rebranded as Connexica many years ago, and our product ‘NetSearch’ has continue to move forward and is now called ‘CXAIR’.
We have always been focused as a Business Intelligence company – however we use search technology as our underpinning infrastructure which means not only can we do next generation analytics on ‘structured’ data (such as databases) but also on ‘unstructured’ data such as file directories.
Hope this clarifies things.
