Building upon a long-standing relationship with BEA, this agreement provides BEA WebLogic Portal users with a unified search experience across multiple data formats, languages and locations for effective information retrieval and increased business efficiency. Additionally, as an Inktomi customer, BEA has deployed Inktomi Enterprise Search on its intranet and corporate Web site.
We are pleased to expand our relationship with BEA as both a customer and partner, said Paul Karr, director of alliances at Inktomi. BEA’s portal strategy reinforces our Search Everywhere initiative by delivering business critical information and processes via a single portal framework. Together, Inktomi and BEA are providing a solution that increases enterprise efficiency, productivity and revenue, while reducing operational and IT costs.
By participating in the BEA Portal Star Solution, Inktomi will be able to offer BEA WebLogic Portal customers scalable, robust search technology that can be deployed rapidly and managed easily, resulting in a lower cost of ownership and allowing enterprises to focus on customization as well as advanced search functionality. Additionally, Inktomi Enterprise Search delivers highly relevant, comprehensive search results from a variety of enterprise information resources, including both structured and unstructured data repositories, as well as content stored in business applications and legacy systems.
