Who is X1? Founded by Idealab Providing next generation Enterprise Search and ediscovery for social media, cloud and the enterprise AWS Partner Network Technology Partner Supporting over 300 enterprise customers Powered by award winning and patented X1 search technology X1 Rapid Discovery is built to be deployed in Cloud environments where there tend to be heterogeneous infrastructure elements. The system is not tightly wound to third party hardware so it can be decoupled so as to scale out and be virtualized more easily...perhaps most interesting to me is the work X1 has done to get into the Amazon AWS program...x1 is really striking first.

Searching in the Cloud Features of AWS CloudSearch and X1 Rapid Discovery Keyword Search Very quick to deploy Low startup costs Benefits and Features of CloudSearch User has control over injection of data and metadata Autoscale Ability to run small, inexpensive test case Easy-to-use Saas offering Benefits and Features of X1 Preinstalled connectors to Exchange, SharePoint, PST, and more Rich Default UI Support for ediscovery and advanced Enterprise Search: real-time tagging, reporting, custodian searches Prepackaged document filters Operates against IaaS installations
Challenges of ediscovery and Advanced Enterprise Search in Cloud Must be Cloud Deployable Majority of current products are extremely customized hardware appliances or require complex on-site installation Must support Virtualization Most ediscovery tools are amalgams of OEM technology that prevent true virtualization Must support Parallelization Typical ediscovery solutions are monolithic architectures tailored for specific, expensive hardware and are unable to scale across multiple machines
Problem solved by LTech and X1 Advantages of solution: Cloud deployable and cloud optimized Able to scale across multiple EC2 instances Simple and rapid install on EC2 machines adjacent to your data Designed to allow optional remote maintenance, configuration, or tuning Simple and quick UI for your end users
Cloud ediscovery: Case Scenario #1 Global financial institution faced with internal compliance investigation 3 TB of potentially relevant data stored in AWS and must be searched ASAP Data spread across Network File Shares, Exchange, SharePoint, PST Files Required solution: o o Must install rapidly Must search and review data in place
Cloud Enterprise Search: Case Scenario #2 Company with 20 TBs of unmanaged user content (MS Office docs, loose PSTs) and SharePoint sites desires to consolidate and house this data in IaaS cloud. Wants global access for 600 employees, searchability of all content for instant retrieval from single pane of glass with robust UI. Required solution: o Cloud-enabled enterprise search solution to install, index, search and review data in AWS (EC2) cloud.
