Autonomy Wins Multi-Million Dollar Infrastructure Deployment Deal from Telecom Italia
Autonomy Announces Significant Agreement with One of World's Largest Telecommunications Groups
San Francisco, CA. - DECEMBER 2 2002 - Autonomy Corporation plc, (Nasdaq: AUTN; LSE: AU.; Nasdaq Europe: AUTN), a leading provider of infrastructure software for the enterprise, today announced that Telecom Italia has purchased Autonomy as the infrastructure that will power its integrated e-learning network.
Telecom Italia is one of the world's foremost telecommunications groups, operating in the fixed-line, mobile, satellite telecommunications, Internet, Media and Information Technology markets. Autonomy will form an integral part of its commitment to continual learning and professional development. For example, Telecom Italia's Learning Services Division will implement Autonomy's technology to aggregate, categorize, summarize, personalize and deliver content through an interactive portal application. This investment in e-learning will enable employees to receive pre-packaged and highly relevant training that is precisely tailored to their needs.
Autonomy's technology was chosen for its ability to generate significant cost savings through automation and the removal of time-consuming manual processes, as well as for its multimedia handling capabilities.
The service will enable employees to create personalized training paths, and will include content in text, voice and video formats, all of which are essential to an integrated learning network. For example, Autonomy will enable employees to watch the exact section of a recorded lesson that is relevant to their business function, avoiding time wasted sitting through irrelevant modules of expensive training courses. Hypertext links to related content will be generated automatically, ensuring that employees are proactively alerted to all the relevant training materials in the enterprise, and removing the need to search for pertinent data.
Additionally, Autonomy's Classification Server will provide Telecom Italia with a high-level overview of all the training material available within the organization. This strategic tool will enable management to assess where knowledge gaps necessitate investment in additional resources, or where an abundance of data exists, for example.
Autonomy, Founder and CEO, Mike Lynch today commented, "We are delighted to announce this agreement with Telecom Italia. As a world leading organization, Telecom Italia is a global authority in designing and deploying effective learning programmes that enable employees to further their own development in pursuit of business objectives. Autonomy is the ideal solution that will accelerate and strengthen Telecom Italia's determination to deliver its e-learning vision".
Autonomy's unique Intelligent Data Operating Layer (IDOL) integrates unstructured, semi-structured and structured information from multiple repositories through an understanding of their content. Autonomy grants enterprises the flexibility to use advanced information retrieval or legacy-based approaches. At the heart of Autonomy's software is its ability to process text, voice and video and identify and rank the main concepts within them. It then automatically categorizes, links, summarizes, personalizes and delivers that information. Autonomy's technology also drives collaboration across the enterprise and enables organizations to effectively leverage expertise. Autonomy's infrastructure technology is used to automate operations within enterprise information portals, customer relationship management, knowledge management, business intelligence and e-business applications, among others.
