Magnify Search Architecture

The Magnify Search platform connects end users to enterprise information through a single point of access in order to search across any content repository, including both structured and unstructured data. End users can then drill down on search results to analyze and understand their information.

Magnify Search applications are built using methods to extract raw data and transform it into search results. During this process, raw data is enriched with categorizations and other metadata that Magnify Search can use in retrieving and presenting search results. This includes item titles, images, geographical details, and drill-down links to associated reports or applications. These processes can be automated so that data storage facilities and file repositories are always kept in sync with Magnify Search. This means that whenever new information is added, old information is updated, or information has expired, Magnify Search will always be up-to-date.

As an administrator, many of the design elements in the Magnify Search interface can be configured. This includes corporate branding and how Magnify Search indexes are organized.
