• Omnidex is a highly-optimized search and analytic engine that delivers dramatically faster queries for business intelligence and online applications using standard SQL interfaces.

• Omnidex provides flexible search capabilities that go well beyond a standard database. Omnidex indexes your textual data using search engine-like features, and uses fuzzy searches so that you don't worry about exact search terms or misspellings.

• Omnidex supports your relational database by adding speed and flexibility without altering the underlying database. Omnidex can enhance your query performance without jeopardizing your investment in the relational system.

• Omnidex indexes flat file data without costly imports into a relational database. Omnidex provides a complete SQL engine for your raw data files and transaction logs, all using standard ODBC and JDBC interfaces.

There are three basic steps to implementing Omnidex into your applications:

1. Tell Omnidex where to find your data.
2. Add Omnidex indexing to your data.
3. Connect to Omnidex and perform queries.

Omnidex applications are easy to prototype. Omnidex will walk you through all of these steps using a tool called the Omnidex Administrator. Once you have developed your Omnidex application, you can then run test queries and see the performance benefits directly.

As with all things, it is valuable to understand Omnidex more deeply before building a production application. Omnidex has many powerful features. Once you have learned about these features, you can decide where you want to enhance your application.
