With the volume and diversity of online data increasing at a tremendous pace, analytics firm SearchBlox has come up with new tools to make sense of the vast amounts of data.
The Richmond, Virginia-based company, which recently announced its entry into the Indian market, provides "simple, flexible and affordable enterprise search, sentiment analysis and text analytics solutions," said Timo Selvaraj, co-founder and Vice-President of SearchBlox.
One of the unique features is multilingual search; the solution supports 37 languages. Calling it a "one-of-a-kind analytics product", Mr. Selvaraj said SearchBlox, which is a faceted search (meaning, search using filters) and analytics solution, has built-in connectors for indexing websites, databases, Twitter etc. Unlike other solutions, this has the capability of real-time visualization and has deep-filtering technology that can help businesses track the latest trends and act on them, he said.
The solution provides easy migration from Google Search Appliance which was retired in February this year. The engine can search across more than 60 data sources of various types like documents, websites, feeds, tweets etc. providing sentiment analysis.
