Verity K2 Developer Software Helps Search Accuracy, Scalability and Ease of Integration for IBM Solution
SUNNYVALE, Calif. - 2005-03-18 - 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 IBM has upgraded the search and content organization capabilities of its digital asset management solution for publishing with the integration of Verity(r) K2 Developer (K2D).
IBM's NICA (Networked Interactive Content Access) is an end-to-end solution that provides the ability to manage, archive, retrieve and reuse content such as text, images, graphics, PDFs, QuarkXpress or InDesign pages as well as audio and video clips. NICA is one of the preferred digital asset management solutions among newspapers, magazines news, wire services and photo agencies around the world.
By embedding K2D, Verity's OEM product for independent software vendors (ISVs) who want to easily add search and organization capabilities to a wide range of business applications, IBM NICA brings to all sorts of print publications and news organizations a faster, more reliable and more accurate search and content classification mechanism.
The IBM NICA solution with K2D will harness Verity(r) Organization Developer's Kit (ODK) that allows taxonomies to be created, modified and reused easily to optimize the organization of content and improve search results.
Further, NICA with K2D will feature Verity's Parametric Selection that provides an intuitive interface so users can easily sort and filter information by selecting pre-set parameters, and searching through filtered text fields and document content for specific content. This heightened search capability will be enjoyed in more countries as well.
The inclusion of Verity K2D brings to NICA support of many languages provided by Verity's Unilocale Locale feature. Verity's full text search delivers results rapidly and ranked by relevance allowing even unsophisticated searchers to find what they want quickly and accurately. Verity K2D can scale to support both a large volume of content and number of users due to its multi-tiered parallel computing architecture.
"IBM's digital asset management system for the world's publications is now equipped with an equally world-class advanced search and classification capability, Verity K2D," said Anthony J. Bettencourt, Verity's president and chief executive officer. "In addition, K2D's enterprise-class scalability further enhances the value and appeal of IBM NICA."
In addition to its comprehensive set of functions and features, Verity K2D can also be easily integrated with enterprise applications. ISVs can choose to deploy the product either as an add-on module or fully embed it into new or existing applications.
