Vivisimo Announces Enterprise Customers for its Clustering Engine
Cisco Systems and ARC Advisory Group Use Clustering to Organize
Search Results PITTSBURGH, Oct. 27 /PRNewswire/ -- Vivisimo, Inc.,
a leading provider of advanced clustering and metasearch software,
today announced that Cisco Systems and ARC Advisory Group have
deployed Vivisimo's next-generation search solutions to achieve
breakthrough improvement in end-user ability to quickly find
information and recognize relationships and patterns in search
results. Vivisimo Clustering solutions dramatically increase the
efficiency of knowledge workers who need to quickly handle large
numbers of search results. Unlike solutions that require huge
investments in taxonomy-building or categorization, Vivisimo's
Clustering Engine organizes search results into folders on the fly,
without requiring any pre-processing of source documents, and
easily interfaces with any search engine or document database. This
value proposition led Cisco Systems, the world's leading provider
of networking equipment, to deploy Vivisimo in its Technical
Assistance Center (TAC). Cisco licensed the Vivisimo Clustering
Engine and Content Integrator to complement its Google Search
Appliance that serves thousands of Cisco engineers. The Content
Integrator meta-searches collections on the Appliance through a
single query. The Clustering Engine then organizes the combined
search results into neat folders, greatly improving the discovery
of relevant information. ARC Advisory Group, a leading industry
analyst firm focused on manufacturing and supply chain segments,
will be deploying the Vivisimo Clustering Engine on their public
arcweb.com site which uses a Google Search Appliance. "Google is
excellent at returning lots of relevant content," said Andy Chatha,
President and Founder, ARC Advisory Group. "Vivisimo Clustering
Engine organizes that large amount of content into meaningful
categories making it significantly easier for users to find the
exact documents they are looking for." With over 4000 visitors
every day and a variety of information such as market studies,
events, news, industry links etc. available on any topic, going
through hundreds of results to find the exact item is
time-consuming for ARC's visitors. "The fact that Vivisimo works so
well on top of Google was a major reason for selecting them," added
Chatha. "Given a web server, hooking Vivisimo to the Google Search
Appliance takes minutes. The Google Search Appliance delivers
search results as XML, which is the input to our Clustering
Engine," said Raul Valdes-Perez, President of Vivisimo. "Since no
pre-processing of the crawled pages is needed by the clustering,
this means that integration is a snap." Google Search Appliance
customers are invited to submit their URL for a quick
demonstration. Learn more at http://vivisimo.com/google . About
