Cooper Cameron Selects Verity Ultraseek for Secure Searching of its Web Site
Ultraseek Content Classification Engine Accelerates Document Organization and Access; Ultraseek XPA Search API Simplifies and Speeds Integration with Database
SUNNYVALE, Calif - 2004-06-07 - Verity Inc., (NASDAQ: VRTY), a leading provider of enterprise software that enables organizations to maximize the return on their intellectual capital investment, today announced that its powerful, downloadable Verity® Ultraseek® enterprise search software has been implemented by Cooper Cameron Corporation (NYSE: CAM) for use on its Internet Web site.
Cooper Cameron, a major supplier of equipment, systems and services to the oil and gas exploration, processing and distribution industries, recently revamped the design and architecture of its Web site as part of an overall company re-branding effort. "An important part of this front-to-back-end change was finding the best-of-breed search engine that would perform as advertised," said David Petty, Cooper Cameron's Web architect. "The 30-day trial offered by Verity for its Ultraseek search engine gave us the opportunity to take a close look at the product. We downloaded the Verity software and had it up and running in hours."
Other search software and hardware-based search appliances on the market were also evaluated but the ease, speed and effectiveness of Verity Ultraseek made it the choice for Cooper Cameron. According to Petty, speed of deployment was important but so too was the ability to deal with the complexities of the sites and the content they hold. "It is crucial for our users to quickly and accurately locate highly complex information about a wide range of topics of interest to the industries," Petty said. "Our resources on the Web are factors in creating and building strong relationships with customers."
Much of the information on the Cooper Cameron site is proprietary in nature yet it was important to expose site visitors to the company's wealth of valuable content. Verity Ultraseek allows Cooper Cameron's breadth of intellectual capital to be visible, while fully complying with the organization's security requirements for access.
An increasing amount of content on the company's site is generated dynamically. To deal with this effectively, Cooper Cameron uses the Ultraseek Content Classification Engine (CCE), a feature that allows dynamic documents to be organized into browseable topics for easy searching. The CCE displays search results and topics related to the returned documents, further enhancing the speed and accuracy of the search process.
"Verity Ultraseek continues to prove itself as faster to deploy and easier to manage, while offering the flexibility to handle customers' dynamic information requirements," said Anthony J. Bettencourt, Verity's president and chief executive officer. "It allows Cooper Cameron to give customers high quality search and browse capabilities without any compromise to the security of its intellectual capital."
Much of the content available on Cooper Cameron's Web sites is delivered dynamically from a database, not just as static web pages on servers. Ultraseek is able to crawl the database so users can get the most relevant search results quickly and easily. The Ultraseek Java XPA Search API aided the integration of Ultraseek with the database, bringing the full range of the search engine's capabilities into the application as well as further improving the site's dynamic content delivery performance. "With our prior search software it took three months of development time to design, build and test this same interconnection," Petty said. "With Verity Ultraseek's XPA Search API, we were able to significantly reduce the integration time with our database application."
Cooper Cameron is a company with nearly 8,000 employees conducting business in 150 countries. The company's Web site is used by more than 20,000 registered users, who typically seek highly technical product or industry information contained in 4,000+ documents stored within the organization's database. As Petty observed, "they are professionals who do not like to waste time." The just-installed Verity Ultraseek enterprise search engine enables them to find the right information in the least time possible.
