IDOL NAMED IT INFRASTRUCTURE PRODUCT OF THE YEAR 2009
Lauded as the Biggest Contribution to Business Technology at the UK IT Industry Awards
Cambridge, UK and SAN FRANCISCO - November 16, 2009 - Autonomy Corporation plc (LSE: AU. or AU.L), a global leader in infrastructure software for the enterprise, today announced that its core infrastructure software, the Intelligent Data Operating Layer (IDOL), has been named IT Infrastructure Product of the Year at the UK IT Industry Awards 2009. Autonomy's revolutionary meaning-based infrastructure software was selected after a rigorous assessment process. The coveted accolade recognizes IDOL as the biggest contribution to business technology over the last 12 months, commending it for its innovation, significant commercial success and customer satisfaction.
Autonomy was founded upon a vision to dramatically change the way in which we interact with information and computers, ensuring that computers map to our world, rather than the other way around. Autonomy is revolutionizing the IT industry through its unique IDOL technology which is able to form an understanding of all data, including structured, semi-structured and unstructured content, regardless of where it resides or what format it is in, and automatically process it. By identifying the patterns in data and acting upon that knowledge, IDOL enables organizations to penetrate their information silos, derive maximum value from their corporate assets and automate a raft of operations. This represents substantial savings for every type of organization and industry and is driving the accelerated adoption of Autonomy's technology across a diverse range of vertical markets.
The UK IT Industry Awards 2009 represent the merger of the British Computer Society (BCS) IT Industry Awards and the Computing Awards for Excellence. The Awards have become the benchmark for excellence by offering a platform for the entire IT profession to showcase and celebrate best practice and innovation. The UK IT Industry Awards combine the experience and resources of the UK's leading IT media brand with those of the society for the UK IT profession.
"Autonomy was founded on a simple yet powerful premise: delivering a platform that enables computers to see the patterns in data the way humans do," said Dr Mike Lynch, Founder and CEO of Autonomy.
"As the dust settles and companies and governments are looking to reinvent themselves to reignite growth, a new class of business leaders is emerging in each industry, in which enlightened organizations gain competitive advantage by recognizing and acting on patterns before other organizations do. Celebrating over 10 years of leveraging patterns for business gain and risk mitigation, IDOL is uniquely positioned to be at the heart of this revolution. This prestigious award further validates Autonomy's leadership in the sector."
