Search Integration Framework Toolkit
(SIFT
) |
|
Raritan's SIFT (Search Integration Framework Toolkit) is a software toolkit that we use to
rapidly develop full featured search and information processing applications
using a wide variety of content sources and information management technologies.
SIFT is not in and of itself a database or a search engine, rather it
provides a way of combining these and other technologies to maximize their
usefulness by providing integrated access to multiple sources of information.
We use SIFT to enhance the power of your
Search Engine or Engines (e.g. Autonomy/K2
(Verity), Endeca, Exalead, Fast,
Dieselpoint, Google Appliance (OneBox), IBM
OmniFind, Lucene, Microsoft Search Server /
Sharepoint ...) used in your enterprise to
connect the disconnected "Silos" of data and
to enhance the User Experience.
SIFT allows content to be integrated from internal sources such as search engines,
databases, file systems, directory services, document management systems
and external sources like news services (e.g. Factiva, Bloomberg) web sites, FTP
and RSS feeds. The Raritan solution takes advantage of the similarities in
content and metadata to create a set of interchangeable parts that can exchange
information from different sources. Each application can be targeted to
appropriate content and its features tailored to the needs of a particular
set of users without “reinventing the wheel” each time. The result is the
rapid development of robust, full-featured knowledge management
applications.
SIFT features an open, modular "plug-and-play" architecture
based on Java and XML that enables the cost-effective development of state of
the art, "production-ready" information management applications. The modular
design not only facilitates initial system development, it also enables
smooth transitions as new components are added to or removed from the
enterprise's operating environment. As such it is a good choice for an
enterprise architecture because it can handle changing resources without
extensive modification.
RTI uses
SIFT
to develop
advanced Feature Rich search applications
quickly and on budget and to gather
data from a variety of sources, including
your Collections, File Systems, Web pages,
Exchange Public folders, Documentum, eRooms,
Databases (Oracle, SQL Server, and Sybase) and
other sources. Additional sources can be added
if required.
