Airbus Licenses Vivisimo Velocity Search Platform

Vivisimo Agreement with Airbus Covers Corporate-Wide Intranet with up to Two Petabytes of Data, More than 50,000 Users

Pittsburgh, PA — Vivisimo (vivisimo.com), a leader in enterprise search, has entered into a major agreement with aircraft manufacturer Airbus for the license of the Vivisimo Velocity Search Platform. The license covers the corporate-wide intranet for Airbus and some extranet services for Airbus customers, indexing up to two petabytes of data for more than 50,000 users.

Vivisimo had already provided search for a group within Airbus before winning the company’s broader corporate business in a competitive setting. In a solution proof of concept, Vivisimo Velocity demonstrated its capability to handle the complexity of Airbus’ many data repositories while respecting the company’s various security parameters.

“The complexity of Airbus’ implementation of Vivisimo Velocity and its corporate-wide deployment demonstrates Vivisimo’s ability to help visionary enterprises maximize the business value of their information, improving their processes and productivity as a result,” said Denis Harscoat, Vivisimo’s General Manager EMEA.
