Vienna, Virginia - (Cheap Web Hosting Directory) - November 1, 2005 - Search engine technology provider, Convera Corporation, has announced that its Excalibur web search technology is now ready to launch as the index now contains more than 4 billion pages.

In addition to reaching 4 billion pages of textual web content, the Excalibur technology also comprises approximately 500 million images, 20 million audio components and 5 million videos.

The company has also announced that it has completed the build-out of its second data center located in Dallas, Texas. This site, in conjunction with the company’s San Diego data center now affords prospective customers a fully redundant hosting environment.

With the attainment of these operational and technology milestones, Convera is positioned to begin accepting customers for Excalibur, presently a private label search offering.

According to Patrick C. Condo, Convera President and Chief Executive Officer, ”We believe we have created a unique search engine. Research shows end-users tend to only look at the first page of search results. What makes the Excalibur offering different is that our search technology reaches down into the unread pages and, by using what we call ‘facets’, essentially retrieves and categorizes information that readers would have otherwise missed. Our goal is simple - to provide end-users with relevant and useful answers, not just a list of popular results.”

The Excalibur web search technology, while a newly developed search platform, leverages Convera’s experience over the past 15 years in creating “deep search” products for law enforcement, national security and intelligence agencies.
