Enterprise Search Summit 2004 is an intensive 2-day conference that is totally focused on the nuts and bolts of how to plan for, choose, and deploy an internal search capability. The concentrated curriculum at Enterprise Search Summit offers a structured learning opportunity where information managers and IT professionals can understand the strategies and get the know-how they need to make the content that they are acquiring, publishing, organizing, and managing not only searchable but findable.
Expert instructors and industry analysts will cover the building blocks of “search,” including metadata, taxonomies, and classification; the complexities of searching both structured and unstructured content; and how to determine which features are essential and which search solution is right for your needs.
Case studies by enterprise information managers will illustrate successful examples of enterprise search applications.
