Enterprise Search Market Poised For Constriction?
How many enterprise search vendors are too many? The answer to that question could become clear in the coming months.

Best And Worst Of Times For Enterprise Search
The enterprise search market has reached a critical point. While the need for search capabilities has grown in a widening array of applications, the market for these tools is reaching a saturation point, with revenue decreasing and pressure on suppliers' bottom lines rising. The end result is companies now find more enterprise search systems available at reasonable prices than ever before, but the number of vendors offering these products may soon dwindle. Companies can find a wide range of possible solutions and chances are good that one will mesh with their business requirements, but the long term future for many of the suppliers is unclear. Consequently, a business could make a purchasing decision and find its vendor acquired or perhaps out of business in a few years. In sum, for buyers, it is the best of times, but it is also the worst of times to be on the looking for an enterprise search system.

Just because we call all the data users aren't changing on a daily basis archival, that doesn't mean it's all the same. The 31-day old email that's been replaced with a stub in the user's mailbox and the 15 year old X-ray HIPPA requires you to keep don't need the same SLA and may be better served by different storage systems.
