What is Digital Information Gateway (DIG^®)?

Digital Information Gateway (DIG^Ž) is the industry's best solution for Federated Search and Information Sharing. DIG is specifically designed to encourage secure information sharing among any number of organizations and handles an extensive number of databases, intranet content, web sites, office documents, and other types of files. DIG creates a "virtual data warehouse" without the costs and security concerns typically associated with data warehousing. Data is never moved from its original location and with DIG Server-to-Server capabilities each owner maintains full control over access to their sources.

DIG searches volumes of data to quickly and accurately find all relevant records with a single search. The ability to search all pertinent data sources at once is key to producing actionable intelligence.

The DIG Virtual Data Warehouse approach to information sharing ensures that:

Data is always up to date (never copied or moved).

There are no ownership issues (owners of the data maintain their ownership and access control).

Security, data access and data purity is maintained by the original owners of the data (no changes can be made by outside users).

There is no costly translation, fixed schema, or data transport (as would be required by a physical data warehouse or other approaches).

With DIG you can easily...

Search and display any and all types of data available to your organization - and any organization that you choose to share data with.

Search multiple, disparate databases simultaneously.

Search any file type.

Search large volumes of data - with no size limit.

Search databases, documents, e mail archives, and Web sites all at once.

Let users choose how they want to build searches - using either a simple search form or a more structured, field based search form.

Transform results into phonetic codes for "sounds like" comparisons.

Display original file content in HTML and native formats.

Export data to a variety of formats.

Simply put, DIG is changing how organizations perform federated searches - while securely controlling access, logging queries, and enabling the data owner to remain in control of their own sources.
