IDV Solutions Offers Visual Search Capabilities using Microsoft Search Server 2008

IDV Solutions has further extended its visual composite applications capabilities by integrating with Microsoft’s newest offering, Search Server 2008. IDV Solutions’ Federated Search Connector enables Microsoft Search Server 2008 (MSS) to integrate with IDV’s visual composite application suite, Visual Fusion, and Flickr, the popular online photo management and sharing application, allowing users to search millions of geotagged Flickr images and visualize the results on a Virtual Earth base map.

“Microsoft places a great deal of importance on our partner ecosystem. IDV Solutions’ Federated Search Connector to Visual Fusion Suite and Flickr allows customers to extend their enterprise search capabilities within their current business systems,” said Jared Spataro, group product manager for Enterprise Search at Microsoft. “By taking advantage of the latest Microsoft Enterprise Search technology, IDV Solutions delivers intuitive, visual composite applications to our joint customers.”

Organizations receive a platform for collaboration, intuitive discovery, and broad data connections by combining the powerful capabilities of IDV’s Visual Fusion Suite, Microsoft Search Server, SharePoint Server, and Virtual Earth. By integrating with MSS, users can visualize, in the context of time and space, the results of their keyword searches within a single, visual composite application.
