Microsoft Announces SingleView for Sharepoint Search
SingleView is built on top of Microsoft’s SharePoint 2007 collaboration portal and is already being used by dozens of large enterprise customers, according to BearingPoint.
SingleView augments SharePoint through a series of data “connectors” that enable SharePoint to act as a master search index for all kinds of enterprise data, including data that isn’t stored on any Microsoft-related servers such as Oracle databases, document management archives, SAP and other CRM (customer relationship management) repositories, e-mails and other sources of information. Ready compete with Google Search Appliance.
