QueSearch: Secure Universal Search

Queplix's unique QueCrawler™ technology, developed over several years as part of the Queplix Secure Data Virtualization (QSDV) platform, delivers an unprecedented level of automation and integration with top enterprise search engines including Google, Microsoft FAST and Autonomy to extract, globalize and inject previously inaccessible structured data from source application including SAP, Siebel, Oracle, PeopleSoft, Salesforce.com and Microsoft Exchange providing a complete view of your corporate information.

In addition, existing search solutions in the market today provide incomplete access to structured data, often requiring manual data extraction, hard-coded SQL programming, and slow application queries. These solutions also lack a comprehensive security and access control framework to enforce existing application policies that make many enterprises are reluctant to include sensitive but valuable data in search results. QueSearch addresses these challenges with a number of key advantages:

  • Synthetic documents: By utilizing features from Queplix DVS, QueSearch can index structured data from enterprise and cloud applications, and create synthetic data objects that are injected into enterprise search indexes such as Google Search Appliance, SharePoint, Autonomy and Endeca. Users receive a relevance-ranked search results list integrating unstructured data, documents and secure structured data. The QueSearch provides a 360-degree view of each customer, PO, part number, or any other record that is easily understood by users.
  • Near real-time indexing: The QueSearch technology monitors applications in real time to capture updated data and meta-data for injection into the search index. This makes QueSearch an ideal front-end for employees to access data from all of their critical applications, as opposed to opening multiple application interfaces and running multiple queries.
  • Dynamic discovery: QueSearch can dynamically discover application data and meta-data, such as business entities and relational links, users, roles, and permissions for inclusion in the search index, reducing the need for custom development and taxonomy catalogues.
  • Web-based data browsing: Once a user receives authorized search results incorporating structured and unstructured data, QueSearch enables them to view the data within the original application, or within a flexible web data-browsing interface.
  • QueSearch also enables custom "actions" directly from the search results interface, such as creating a new support database entry, or opening a new purchase order.
  • The universal search results from a variety of sources can be accessed either from the cloud (i.e. from salesforce.com) or on-premises applications (i.e. SAP), creating a single interface for all enterprise data sources.
