No drastic changes to the industry were observed at this year’s Enterprise Search Summit (#ESS12) in New York.  Despite the fact that there wasn’t anything ground breaking there are still some industry trends that continue to prevail.

Open Source Search

Open source search technology continues to evolve and must be considered as a legitimate option for many organizations.  The open source search community is now standardizing and continuing to develop more sound solutions.  In addition, there are more third party open source experts that can assist with ongoing support and maintenance of your open source search applications (Norconex, being one of them).  The open source search player’s presence was felt this year.

This coming October, London will host the first ever Enterprise Search Europe conference. This conference is a brother event of the well-established US based Enterprise Search Summit.  Norconex is proud to present a variation of its successful talk regarding the importance of gathering good search analytics data, and how to best act on such data.

Using the great feedback David Gaulin received from his last presentation, he will present an updated talk explaining how following and understanding your users search behaviours can be used to successfully measure and improve your enterprise search investment.

David’s talk “How to Make your Silent Search Users Talk: Actions Speak Louder than Words” is scheduled for Tuesday October the 25th, just before lunch.  The Enterprise Search Europe program is now available.

If you’re interested in the enterprise search space, and you’re in Europe, or traveling to Europe, make sure you don’t miss this event. We’re looking forward to seeing you there!

What a search summit!  Always interesting to meet people with whom you can exchange tips, tricks, and techniques.  A lot of familiar faces, a lot of familiar products, but also a few new comers trying to shake up the industry. Read More…

Several presentations were given in front of full rooms, which may suggest renewed interest in the search industry. This being said, that interest seems to be spread across the globe. At this search summit we seemed to meet significantly more people from other parts of the world than New York or anywhere else in the US. We had great conversations with people from Germany, Holland, Australia, France, South Africa, and the UK – always great to see new faces! Naturally, Norconex stepped in to represent Canada. Our VP of Services David Gaulin presented a successful talk on the importance of capturing and interpreting good search metrics to improve your search offering. Read More…
