Recommind Enhances Platform with Federated Search Framework

Recommind announced the availability of the MindServer 5.1 platform, which combines navigation and grouping controls over external content with multi-layered security to deliver a federated search framework. The MindServer 5.1 release expands Recommind's enterprise search functionality in several ways, most notably in the deep federated search capabilities that allow users to search multiple internal and external systems from a single integrated search interface. In addition to finding information from within an enterprise's many applications, databases, file servers and other repositories, MindServer 5.1 delivers external results to a single UI via out of the box integrations with a number of online publishers as well as public sources such as EDGAR Online, the US Food and Drug Administration, the US Federal Trade Commission, Association of Corporate Counsel, UK government departments, the European Union, London Stock Exchange, Wikipedia, Google, the BBC and many others. Search management controls support restrictions across secure content, enabling only users with specific access rights to perform searches on certain external content (e.g. on password protected subscription sites or pay per search sites). MindServer 5.1 provides automatic phrase extraction functionality. MindServer 5.1's incremental crawl functionality allows particularly time-sensitive information to be updated within a user's query results. Another feature of MindServer 5.1 is its ability to extend information navigation to email attachments and archived content (e.g. in an email archive). MindServer 5.1 is available immediately with pricing upon request. http://www.recommind.com
