  • The 451 Group, Oracle secures its search strategy as scalable, stand-alone and in the stack (PDF)
    Distribution rights expire November 2011 (Publication: November 2010)
    Analysts validate the strategy for Secure Enterprise Search by noting “ease of use and scalability enhancements are standard in any enterprise search release, but in Oracle’s case, the upgrades to Secure Enterprise Search (SES) are both a stake in the ground to tackle the market on an Oracle-worthy scale, and its appliance could pose an attractive alternative as data growth soars and Google’s customers outgrow their first million-document-max yellow boxes. The bigger picture for Oracle’s own stack is embedding search discretely in all individual Oracle applications and integrating it with Oracle Fusion Middleware for the future development of enterprise-wide, search-based applications.”
