Search Administration

Sybase Search provides intelligent information retrieval, document index management, and document categorization.

Sybase Search automates the process of locating relevant business information from within the unstructured information stored in your organization’s network drives, databases, intranets, and the Internet. Sybase Search offers an efficient and cost-effective solution for searching unstructured information, regardless of the format and language in which the information is written.

In WorkSpace, you can create, edit, share, deploy, and publish Search services. A Search service is created as a Java service to use in a business process.

For complete information about Sybase Search, see Sybase Search Administration and Users Guide at http://sybooks.sybase.com.
