Enterprise Search
MarkLogic Server goes where no enterprise search system has gone before. Unlike typical enterprise search engines, MarkLogic Server lets you ingest your enterprise content in a range of formats including HTML, Microsoft Office documents and PDF automatically convert it to XML, and then provide XML and full text search across all enterprise content. This ability means that search results are provided as answers, not links.
Discover how MarkLogic Server can ingest your enterprise content in a range of formats and provide answers, not links.
For example:
- you can search PowerPoint decks for specific slides and return individual slides, not links to one-hundred slide presentations.
- you can search for tables in word files that include columns titled “volume” and “discount.”
- you can crack open PDF contracts searching for specific phrases and then return only those sections to the user, not scores of links to two-hundred page contracts

Because of its powerful enterprise search capabilities, MarkLogic is an excellent tool for search and discovery applications including risk management, compliance, and knowledge management. Department of Defense customers use MarkLogic to mine contracts, proposals, and specifications to determine and classify the relative sensitivity of different types of intellectual property.
- MarkLogic is an XML content server, not an enterprise search solution. MarkLogic allows organizations to create "contentbases" that handle large amounts of XML content and quickly produce full document results.
- MarkLogic starts with the capabilities you find in the best enterprise search solutions: Boolean, parametric, phrase, proximity, and range and wildcard searches along with language processing features like spell checking, stemming, and thesauri. But MarkLogic does so much more, and easily scales to terabytes of content.
- MarkLogic offers language-aware indexing that provides more accurate search results for non-English users, something enterprise search solutions cannot do.
- And unlike enterprise search engines, MarkLogic provides one-step answers to queries by returning the specific content requested, not just links to entire documents. For example, with enterprise search, a search for an excerpt from a California law would result in a massive list of links to articles. With MarkLogic, the result would be all relevant full documents and small paragraphs of content.
- With MarkLogic, as soon as content is added to the contentbase, it is immediately available and returned in all appropriate searches, eliminating the lag time introduced by enterprise search engines between when content is available and when it's indexed and returned by searches.
