SAP BusinessObjects Intelligent Search features enable:

• Leveraging existing authentication – Leverages existing authentication and password mechanisms, allowing you to search all information silos at once - Web, subscription and internal silos
• Full-text analysis – Sophisticated extraction analyses the full text of documents (not just summaries), clustering results by people, places, organisations, concepts and more
• Tracking and alerts – Automatically tracks and alerts you of changes to a Web page, document of interest or new information
• Addition of new sources – Adds new sources using a simple graphical broker editor or through global services
• Query translation – Automatically translates queries into multiple source-specific query languages
• Ranking and re-ranking – Re-ranks all documents for relevance and combines duplicate results
• Finding similar results – Automatically finds other similar results when an individual result is highlighted
• Storing and filtering:
  • Results can be sorted and filtered by relevance, date, source, category or other criteria
  • Advanced filtering identifies the most relevant themes, people, organisations, places, product names and other information.
• Keyword summaries – Augments keyword-in-context summaries by "top mentions" and categories derived from the full text of search results
• Myriad entity types – Provides more than 30 entity types out-of-the-box
• Clustering:
  • Customise the system to cluster by industry-standard or company-specific taxonomies.
  • Customise clustering for custom list- or pattern-based entities, such as project code names, terrorist names, gene sequences and SKUs
