Inktomi Unveils New Search Index
Inktomi Corp. Tuesday released its third-generation search architecture, a super search index comprising 500 million Net documents.
GEN3 underpins the Inktomi search engine and has the ability to index over one billion documents. This new architecture will provide portals and destination sites, offering users accurate search results and new search services.
The GEN3 architecture is built upon Inktomi's (INKT) Coupled Cluster and Concept Induction core technologies. Coupled Cluster software architecture is the foundation for the Inktomi search engine and enables multiple workstations collaborating in parallel through high-speed connections to function as one computer.
