Tackling extreme data volume We all know of the imperative of managing the extreme—and sometimes debilitating—volume of data in today's organizations. In early March, Digital Reef emerged from two years of stealth mode to tackle that problem by introducing what it claims is a new approach to discovering and managing unstructured and semi-structured data. |

Discovery Tools Fundamental to Data Management Effective data management is an idea that has been ignored for far too long. Digital Reef came out of stealth mode earlier this month with a Web site and a blog by president and CEO Steve Akers. Akers has a strong network background, having held senior technical and managerial positions with Shiva Technologies, Spring Tide Networks, and Lucent Technologies prior to co-founding Digital Reef. That experience helped him realize both the benefits and challenges of data sharing via a network. Now his attention is directed to solving the problem that distributed data has created: the inability to find the files you're looking for. |

Digital Reef's Similarity-Based Search Helps Corporate Data "Speak For Itself" Sometimes (just sometimes) it pays to look behind the jargon in press releases. One glance at yesterday's coming-out-of-stealth-mode announcement from Boxborough, MA based Digital Reef, which starts off talking about "massively scalable unstructured data management platforms" and "capabilities [that] improve eDiscovery outcomes," was enough to make even a nerd like me want to tune out. But it turns out that Digital Reef has built something fairly new and interesting, a "similarity search engine" for big corporate networks that can start with one document—say, a Word or Excel file—and find others that resemble it. |
