Mondosoft Launches MondoSearch 5.2

The demand for increased indexing speed and higher performance has
been the driving force when developing MondoSearch 5.2.

Mondosoft, pioneers in Enterprise Search and Behavior Analytics, today announced the launch of MondoSearch 5.2. Mondosoft has historically focused on the mid-market. MondoSearch 5.2 is targeted towards small and medium size web projects with up to 100.000 pages. For projects above this limit Mondosoft recommends Mondosoft Enterprise edition launched in March 2005.

"MondoSearch 5.2 is not only an end-user update. We see it as an update that brings Mondosoft into the next division of enterprise search and analytics. I’m very pleased to say that the hard work our development team has put into the Mondosoft Enterprise edition now becomes a benefit to small and medium size web projects. Besides the improved performance we have found reason to improve other areas of MondoSearch – for example better ranking", says Mondosoft VP of Sales, Hans Christian Studstrup.

Distributed computing and isolated indexing
With the launch of version 5.2 of the Mondosoft Product Suite, Mondosoft launches a very robust product. The major new features in MondoSearch 5.2 are:

• Increased indexing speed and much lower load on the indexed server makes it easy to have an updated site and enhanced search performance. One of the keys to the greatly improved speed and performance of MondoSearch 5.2, is multi-threaded connection pooling. “This is a method of keeping a connection to a host open for many data transactions, instead of opening and closing a connection with each new request, while parts of its code execute concurrently. When applied to the MondoSearch Crawler, it reduces the load on the web servers on which it runs and increases speed dramatically", says Hans Christian Studstrup.

• MondoSearch 5.2 also includes 3 .NET search templates. Each template represents a style and design that is easily tailored to fit any functionality and design specification. Mondosoft´s .NET Search templates make search integration in .NET environments more cost and time-efficient than ever before.

• MondoSearch 5.2 has a Web Services interface that allows new users to search across content, applications and geographical distance. In addition, MQL (Mondosoft Query Language), the .NET capabilities and the Search control from the Search Kit, have been integrated to the way MondoSearch works with .NET in version 5.2. “It is an important step towards a total .NET architecture that will make installation and deployment significantly easier, and make it easier for our partners to make all .NET integrations with other applications, such as CMS systems", says Hans Christian Studstrup.
