Just wanted to make a quick addition to Nick’s post about Interwoven search.
The Interwoven name is not lost entirely, it is just being removed from the WorkSite, RecordsManager and Universal Search products in favor of reviving the iManage brand. I’m not sure why Autonomy wants to bring more brands into the mix, when there is already Autonomy Zantaz, Autonomy Meridio and so forth; the overall info governance story might seem stronger if the individual components weren’t all still branded separately.
In any event, we have Autonomy Interwoven Web Solutions now, which does make sense since WCM is what the Interwoven brand has always been most strongly associated with, despite its success in the legal market.
And it appears there’s been some IDOL magic with Interwoven TeamSite, similar to what Nick described with Universal Search. Autonomy announced today that:
Autonomy’s core infrastructure software, the Intelligent Data Operating Layer (IDOL), is now the underlying technology for TeamSite in version 6.7.2.
We haven’t been briefed yet on what exactly this means but again, as Nick noted, the speed of these integrations leaves us scratching our heads, unless this is the fruition of some work that was started prior to the acquisition. The press release does also note:
A series of new modules leveraging additional capabilities IDOL brings to TeamSite will be released over the coming months.
We’ll be getting all the details in the coming weeks and will provide more comprehensive analysis at that point.
