Another Enterprise Search Vendor Turns Big Data Solution
December 22, 2012
Technology vendors go through many iterations of their image; they change as quickly as the technologies do. Funnelback has announced that they are on version number twelve of its website and enterprise search offerings. Their press release, “Funnelback 12 Delivers Quantum Leap in Scale and Speed of Enterprise Searching for Big Data,” discusses the new features and more.
Big data drives quite the demand and Funnelback is one of many that promises search technology to quell the queries. Search results in this iteration return more date-based facets, easily categorizing results by dates, and TextMiner, a new feature offers definitions of acronyms and terms for users.
According to the article, Matthew Sheppard, Manager of Research and Development stated:
“Version 12 significantly enhances the speed and scale of searching in the enterprise. As the issue of Big Data increases globally, the need for powerful search technology with the ability to search multiple information sources and across large data sets becomes paramount. Funnelback Version 12 unlocks the value of enterprise information like never before.”
Funnelback is now a big data search system just like Vivisimo. It seems that words are more magical than the technologies they describe.
