The Challenge

Visitors to the company's client-facing websites may be looking to purchase products or may be looking for research documentation related to the materials used in those products.

  • Functional and technical design;
  • Data pipeline optimization;
  • Java web application coding and implementation utilizing a Spring Framework, JBoss and Endeca's Java API; and
  • Application deployment to the client’s development, staging and production environment


The Results

The Ironworks implementation of the Endeca technology resulted in a powerful and flexible search engine.Capable of searching numerous data sources in multiple languages and an exponentially increasing number of records, the end product quickly compiles and clearly presents robust and comprehensive results. This allows site visitors to find the content they seek and discover new information, whether looking to purchase a specific product or learn more about the science of our client.
