British search firm Simplexo partners with Ingres
October 08, 2008

Simplexo, a UK-based open source enterprise search specialist, announced a partnership with open source database and services player, Ingres.

Joint customers will benefit with access to Ingres Database, a high performance enterprise grade open source database, coupled with Simplexo’s ability to securely search all enterprise information with a single click, the companies said.

Alistair Handyside, CEO of Simplexo, said: “Our partnership will address the strategic need for real-time enterprise search within the financial services market, where immediate, secure access to historical information is not only a business priority but also a regulatory necessity.”

“By joining forces with Ingres, the real time enterprise search capability of Simplexo Enterprise will complement the Ingres IceBreaker BI Appliance, which delivers all an organization’s business intelligence needs from reporting, analysis, and dashboards to complete data integration with existing systems,” said Simplexo.

Simplexo, an enterprise search firm that competes with the likes of Autonomy, Endeca, Google Enterprise and more, says its differentiator is the ability to search structured and unstructured data in real-time, with a single click.

It also assigns security according to role-based policy enforcement, and when it is first installed and configured can be set only to search non-confidential information within the company.

Microsoft recently acquired Norway’s Fast Search and Transfer to give it a story in the enterprise search space.
