Multiple Search Systems, One Query, One Single Results Page

XSEARCH Federated Search is the Meta Search Engine technology for Portals and Enterprises.

By submitting a query you get results from multiple search engines that are dynamically merged in a single list.

MULTIPLE SOURCES

XSEARCH Federated Search enables users to access all necessary information with a single-query.

• Different sources from your Intranet and beyond
• subscription-based content
• any public site on the Internet

can be searched in one instant.

All results are dynamically merged, filtered and ranked.

FAST SEARCH

XSEARCH Federated Search brings multiple sources together within a single query. Instead of using endless search interfaces, all sources can be processed in a single search portal.

FLEXIBLE TECHNOLOGY FOR ALL SOURCES

The underlying technology can be adapted to nearly every search engine, no matter if internal, Internet or subscription based. For every source the most relevant information will be extracted and delivered.

MERGED RANKING

XSEARCH Federated Search merges and re-ranks results in a single list. This process is completely configurable for custom merging and individual ranking schemes.

INCREMENTAL RESULT-LIST

Different sources return their results at different speed. XSEARCH Federated Search searches multiple sources simultaneously and displays the results as soon as they are returned. Results from slower sources are filtered, merged and re-ranked by default incrementally.

MULTILINGUAL

By integrating the UNICODE architecture nearly every language is supported.

SECURITY

In an enterprise environment, access to specific sources can be restricted to specific user groups.

ADMINISTRATION AND MONITORING

All sources are monitored in real-time, allowing administrators to check response time and availability for every source.

WEB SERVICE INTERFACE

XSEARCH Federated Search supports HTTP, HTTPS, SOAP, XML-RPC, REST, JDBC, LDAP, SAP JCo and Lucene. And connects to nearly every database system, website or information system with a universal platform. Result lists will be provided in HTML, XML, PDF or TXT.

PURE JAVA

XSEARCH Federated Search relies on a 100% Java infrastructure and supports many UNIX, Linux and Windows systems.

EASY INTEGRATION

It can be easily embedded into native Business Applications and Websites. Connecting to third party products can be realized by its SOA module or Java Library.
