We recently completed the survey for the upcoming 2008 Socha-Gelbmann Electronic Discovery report. It’s the third year we’ve responded, and if ISYS is any barometer for trends, then you’re left to conclude there’s actually something to this e-discovery thing. Projections are up, the customer base is broader, and our technology (by design) is more directly engineered to answer many of the e-discovery challenges, including advanced search and text analytics. Pure e-discovery vendors would probably agree that the years ahead look good, but we’ll wait and see what Socha-Gelbmann say.
In Part One of our series on enterprise search white papers, we’d like to call your attention to our paper titled “Enterprise Search for E-Discovery Compliance.” Over at DevCentral in Sydney, we’re busy doubling our capabilities in this space, but the paper itself serves as a good introductory overview on the key e-discovery requirements for search. As always, we invite your comments.
