Oracle releases Secure Enterprise Search 10g
In a move to
become the “Google of Corporate Data,” Oracle has released Secure
Enterprise Search 10g, an intranet-focused system that will index
private data for corporate use.
Though Google
is in a strong position when it comes to public data and Internet
searching, they do not yet have a firm hold on private data, an area
where Oracle hopes it can dominate.

“Oracle Secure
Enterprise Search 10g will support the searching of a company's
databases, applications, file servers, repositories, portals and
internal and external websites, according to Sandeepan Banerjee,
director of product management for objects and extensibility with
Oracle. The search engine is integrated with multiple user
authentication systems so that a particular user will only be able to
see search results tied to the information they are authorized to
view, he said.”
The search will
run as a separate Oracle database that acts as an index for nearly any
type of data; with this method, a company can easily crawl their
network and store location information securely in one central search
application.
Secure
Enterprise Search 10g will soon be available for download from OTN.
“Ellison
encouraged users to download the application and take it for a test
drive before deciding whether to buy it or not.
‘Just go ahead
and download it from our site, it's very easy to try,’ he said.
‘Normally you buy an Oracle database product, your engineers work for
a while, it's really a pretty substantial project before you start
returning value to your company. This is very unusual. Literally,
within a day or two of installing this product you can start
delivering this search capability to the people inside your
organization.’”
