April 18, 2009 - Exalead, a global provider of information access software for business and the web, today announced that SearchDataManagement.com has selected Exalead CloudView as the Gold Award winner in the Business Intelligence and Analytics category for its 2008 “Product of the Year” competition.
Exalead CloudView was chosen from a pool of more than 60 entrants in the overall competition. The awards were judged by the SearchDataManagement.com editorial staff, in conjunction with a team of industry analysts and consultants.
According to the review that accompanied the award win, “CloudView, a BI platform from Paris-based Exalead S.A., impressed our judges with its ability to access operational data in near real time, collect and analyse unstructured content, and collect data from multiple sources, including Web-based applications. The platform is also highly scalable, with one CloudView customer reportedly using it to analyse half a petabyte of data in near real time, according to the vendor.”
Exalead’s CloudView product line includes CloudView OEM and CloudView Search. It is an easy-to-use platform for creating search-based applications that access structured as well as unstructured data such as instant messages, emails, web pages, and multimedia.
This new class of search-based applications provides enterprise customers with real-time information on which to make strategic business decisions. GEFCO, for example, one of the largest logistics and transportation services firms in the world, maintains up-to-the-minute intelligence on its supply chain with a searchable “Track and Trace” application built on CloudView and its database offloading technology.
“It’s an honour to be recognised by SearchDataManagement.com and to be acknowledged for our innovation in bringing scalable web architecture to the enterprise,” said Paul Doscher, CEO of Exalead, North America. “Search-based applications that serve critical business goals in real time and offer unified, contextual search across structured and unstructured data sources are the future of information access. With CloudView, Exalead aims to offer a convenient single point of access to the information cloud.”
