New White Paper - Pitfalls in Implementing Enterprise Search Solutions - Now Available

December 09, 2004 (PRLEAP.COM) Technology News
Holmdel, NJ – Index Engines Inc. announces the immediate availability of a new white paper – Pitfalls in Implementing Enterprise Search Solutions. This new white paper looks at typical approaches for solving the challenge of managing the glut of unstructured enterprise files and email and discusses their flaws.

Today's enterprises face an explosive growth of unstructured information. Corporate employees are burdened with managing ever-larger repositories of files and email—30 times more than they had to manage a decade ago, by some estimates. As a result, they are spending too much time searching for information and not enough time contributing to their organizations' growth and success.

In response to the information glut, businesses are rapidly adopting enterprise search solutions. These solutions are designed to provide quick and easy access to unstructured corporate data. However, there is a fundamental flaw in their approach, which involves using agents that crawl the LAN attempting to access data, often copying it, and then finally indexing it.

A new approach is needed—an approach that solves the problem from a different angle and delivers the benefits of existing enterprise search technologies without any of the pain. Index Engines believes the correct approach is to integrate the indexing process tightly and transparently into the existing storage fabric. This white paper focuses on issues to be aware of when implementing an enterprise search strategy.
