Enterprise Search的几个基本概念

什么是Enterprise search.

An enterprise search system provides extensive capabilities for searching any number of structured and unstructured data sources with a single query. The enterprise search system provides fast query response times and a consolidated, ranked result set that enables you to easily locate the information that you need.

 

什么是Guided navigation

Guided navigation有很多不同的叫法，比如说Google和Autonomy称为Parametric Search，很多sales称为Directed Navigation，还有人称为Faceted Search，Drill down, Guide search.

Guided Navigation is a feature that guides users to narrow their search results while helping them avoid dead ends.  Traditional "Advanced Search" screens have long offered the same narrowing capabilities but with no guidance and no guarantee of avoiding dead ends.  Guided Navigation requires little special use education because it is a common feature on the Internet with the strongest roots in e-commerce, and fits well with users' desired experience of entering one or two search terms then expecting the user experience to hold their hand through the rest of the process to finding the data they seek.

 

什么是Federate search

At query time, connect to multiple search engines and collect results, then coordinate and present all results to user in one screen.

 

什么是Media search,

Media search主要是指搜索图像，音频，视频等文件的meta data, object recognization以及演讲文本。
