IXIASOFT announced the availability of TEXTML Server 3.6. IXIASOFT has extended TEXTML Server’s functionality by providing users with new features enabling them to manage, search and sort extremely large document bases. Developed for the management of large volumes of content, the TEXTML Server “Meta Services” feature enables users to query multiple document bases from a single and/or multiple physical servers as if they were querying one single document base. TEXTML Server 3.6 now enables users to access fragments of a document upon a search result, instead of the whole document. This feature maximizes the speed at which search results can be obtained. For example, users can select to have only specific fields returned (ie. Title and Author) which optimizes the access of search results and reduces the amount of processing (XSLT) required on the application tier, especially when dealing with large volumes of documents. http://www.ixiasoft.com
