“Wikipedia…it’s so easy to retrieve information from. But doctors are now starting to use that instead of the best evidence-based sources out there to find answers to their questions. So we need better information management and search tools, to curate the most valuable sources that are out there.”

What is the Deep Web?
The Deep Web is a collection of internet information sources that are generally not accessible to web spiders or crawlers and cannot, therefore, be indexed for search by popular search engines such as Google, Yahoo! or Bing (a.k.a. the Surface Web).

It is estimated that there is more than 500 times more content in the Deep Web than the Surface Web.

What is “Federated Search”?
“Federated Search is an application or service that allows users to submit a real-time search in parallel to multiple, distributed information sources and retrieve aggregated, ranked and de-duplicated results.”

1. Provides greater efficiency than searching sources one by one
2. Returns the most current information because sources are searched in real-time
3. Eliminates learning disparate publisher interfaces
4. Simplifies discovery of the most relevant results
