Oracle Secure enterprise Search versus Oracle Text
I'm involeved in a project where we're using Oracle text for its text search capability. Yesterday during a meeting Oracles Secure Enterprise search engine came up. I see similar functionality offered in both products - Oracle text comes with 10g - not sure if SES comes with additional cost. Has anyone done analysis on why one would implement one over the other - I understand that SES gives the customer a federated option and some internet search capabilities but since I'm not concerned with that for this project does it make a difference?
SES is a complete seaerch application with connectors to many different data sources, such as email systems and document management systems.
Oracle Text, on the other hand, is a toolkit for building applications (and is used as such by SES).
Oracle Text comes free with the database. SES is chargable, but comes with a free database (though it's restricted to use by SES only!)
Generally speaking, if your data is in the database and you want fine control over how to search it, Oracle Text is a better option.
If your data is scattered around diverse enterprise sources, and you want a ready-built application to collect, index and search that data, SES is the proper choice.
Here's a slide from my OpenWorld presentation, which I guess says much the same thing:
Oracle Text is the toolkit and platform for building sophisticated Information Retrieval applications and services
- Fine control over indexes, partitioning, etc
Oracle Secure Enterprise Search is a stand-alone application built on the foundation of Oracle Text
- Includes its own database
- No programming needed
- Includes crawlers and an end-user UI

Siebel Secure Enterprise Search
Hey all,
We are trying to install Siebel Search on both the call center and eService. Anyway We followed the steps as in the Siebel Search Administration Guide I accessed the Oracle Secure Enterprise Search Administration application and when entering the username and password and pressing the Finish button I received an error. The following is the log file (OC4J) I don't know the solution. Could anyone help please? The bookshelf also said that The Siebel EAI SearchObject Component should be running but I didnt find it in the Siebel Application..Can anyone tell me how to locate this component?!

Searching PageService pages using Secure Enterprise Search
Hi,
In our application we allow the users to create pages at runtime using PageService as outlines in the oracle manual http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E12839_01/webcenter.1111/e10148/jpsdg_page_service.htm . I would like to have Secure Enterprise Search crawl these pages and have them show up in the search results. How can I do this? It will help to know where the content for these pages are stored (I can figure out the rest).
This is roughly the code used to create the pages:
public void createMyPage {
try {
MDSSession mdsSess = (MDSSession)ADFContext.getCurrent().getMDSSessionAsObject();
PageServiceConfig config = new PageServiceConfig(mdsSess, DEFAULT_SCOPE);
mPageService = PageServiceFactory.createInstance(config);
String pageNameFormat ="Page{0}.jspx";
String pageTitle ="New Page";
// The template used to create the new page is /mytemplates/MyPageTemplate1.jspx
// path "/mytemplates" should be defined as a MDS namespace.
// Also MyPageTemplate1.jspx should have a pageDef called "MyPageTemplate1PageDef.xml and
// it has the same path as the jspx file.
PageDef newPage = mPageService.createPage(
PERSONAL_USER_PAGE, pageNameFormat, pageTitle,
"MyPageTemplate1.jspx",
"/mytemplates/",
null, null, null);
} catch(Exception e) {
// Handle exception
Thank you.Hello,
Can you please confirm what type of application you are running and attempting to index with SES.
+ You have mentioned Oracle WebCenter Sites- there is an example here of creating navigation menus in WebCenter Sites:
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E29542_01/doc.1111/e29605/user_sitenavigation.htm#WBCSU519
+ But you have logged this question in the Oracle WebCenter Portal community - there is an example here creating navigation menus in WebCenter Portal:
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E29542_01/webcenter.1111/e27739/jpsdg_navigation.htm#JPSDG6723
Can you please clarify which product you are using (WebCenter Sites or WebCenter Portal) so that we can direct this to the right person to advise you further.

According to your description, the error occurred when you re-created the Search Service Application.
Based on the error message, I recommend to verify the things below:
1. Check if the association between the Search Service Application proxy and the web application is configured.
Please go to Central Administration > Application Management > Configured service application associations > Click Default to see if the Search Service application is checked.
2. Change the app pool for the Search Service Application to SharePoint Web Services Default in the properties of the Search Service Application.
Please go to Central Administration > Application Management > Manage service applications > Highlight the Search Service Application > Click Properties in the ribbon > Change
the two app pool to SharePoint Web Services Default: App Pool For Search Admin Web Service and Application Pool for Search Query and Site Settings Web Service.
3. Run PS command to check if the search admin timer job is enabled: Get-SPTimerJob
job-application-server-admin-service | fl. If it is not enabled, use PS command to enabled it and then reset Internet Information Services: Enable-SPTimerJob job-application-server-admin-service.
Best regards.
Thanks

Oracle Secure Enterprise Search integration with Hadoop
Hello Guys,
I am currently exploring Oracle SES for performing search across all enterprise information assets. One of my asset is a Hadoop system holding a huge dump of data.
Does SES have out of box integration with Hadoop (hdfs) or is there any specific connector available that can be used to make the connection and search data.
I am new to Oracle SES, appreciate if someone could answer this question.
Thanks,
SoorajIt can be done but it's not easy.
Federation is done through the Web Services API. To create a custom federation to a non-SES endpoint, you have to replicate most of the Web Services API. You can choose to do it selectively, for example you can choose to implement doOracleSearch but not doOracleAdvancedSearch or doOracleBrowseSearch (names from memory - could be wrong) which would give you the basic search capability but no advanced search or browse against the federated source.
Then you've got the problem of merging results. When all federated sources are SES based, it's easy to merge them. You know that a document which scores 63 fron one source is more accurate than one that scores 62 from another, and so should appear higher in the hitlist. But if one of those sources is - say - Bling, then how do you that 63 as a score from Bling is comparable to 63 as a score from SES? They're probably not comparable.
These are the reasons that mention of federation to external sources was removed from the 10.1.8.4 documentation, it was felt that it just wasn't practical for most users.
A rather better alternative is to use the Suggested Content feature. This is MUCH easier to configure, and doesn't attempt to merge the results. From a user's point of view this may be less desirable than a merged result set, but given that any such merge probably won't work well, it's really better all round. -

ORACLE Secure Enterprise Search and Content DB / Content Services
OSES provides a connector to index and search ContentDB / Content Services.
I could not find any information which content will be indexed and searchable.
a) Fulltext (e.g. PDF / Doc)
b) Standard Attributes (e.g. description)
c) Custom Attributes
Can indexing (a+b+c) be configured,
or do I need to customize the connector to let the description field be indexed
or do I need to re-implement the connector?
kind regards, tom.It can be done but it's not easy.

Installation Issue with Secure Enterprise Search 11.2.2.2
Hi,
I'm facing an issue with Oracle SES 11.2.2.2.
I have installed this on 11.1.1.6 middleware softwares and weblogic 10.3.6 and the installation is successful. The admin UI opens up in the browser. (http://localhost:13102/search/admin/index.jsp)
However, when I install it in another environment where 11.1.1.8 versions of middleware softwares are present with weblogic 10.3.6 (performing exactly same steps as above). The admin UI does not open up. When I click on the login button nothing happens.
Has anybody faced this problem before?
Thanks,
RohanI would suggest that you open an SR with Support on this issue

Ranking in Secure Enterprise Search
Hi.
I have installed SES and indexed a simple table with 2 rows :
create table test (
id number(10) primary key,
subject varchar2(1000),
Title varchar2(1000),
Content varchar2(1000)
insert into test values (1,'books','New articale about astronomy','hi. my name is galileo');
insert into test values (2,'astronomy','the moon','the moon is white');
The word "Astronomy" apears bith in row #1 in the subject and in row #2 in the title.
I have created a column mapping as needed.
when I look for the word "astronomy" I would like to have the rows with the subject to be higher on the result page. I tried to write inside the ranking.xml file the following :
<default-factor>
<name>title</name>

But still - when I look for the word "astronomy" I get row #2 at the top (while I expect row #1 to be the first since it appears in the subject).
Please help me.
Thanks,
IradTry using the column mapping feature within the datasource to map the subject column to the title attribute. That way the subject column should receive the automatic boosting that a hit in the title attribute normally gets.

Index document with Oracle Text from an ECM without saving the content
Hi,
I have documents in a ECM (Alfresco, UCM and more) and I would like Oracle Text to index the document without saving the content. I want to save space and not have redundant information. I would use Oracle Text to search for document's identification (ID) and fetch the document from the ECM using the ID.
Is it possible ?
Do I have to use Secure Enterprise Search ?
Thanks
SimonI want to save space and not have redundant information.The database space or the disk space (in OS)?
If it the database space, it is not possible to index/serach without storing the file conetents.
using , FILE_DATASTORE you can save the file in the disk (OS) and index them.
When you remove the file, you need to re-index it.
I donot see any other ways.
Do I have to use Secure Enterprise Search ?SES also uses Oracle Text as its base. It also uses FILE_DATASTORE. But the re-indexing part is automated using crawlers. -
Hi,
I have started learning abt Enterprise Search. I have some queries on it. Pls clear my doubts.
1. It has been said that, "SAP NetWeaver Enterprise Search is delivered as an appliance with the software preinstalled on dedicated hardware"
So, once necessarily needs to by the hardware to use Enterprise Search or this is just another option ? if possible some detailed explanation on it.
2.Are there some reference customers for this product ? and generally who is a reference customer for a product?
3.What versions of SAP does it support ? R/3 4.6, etc.
/* points assured*/

Art Tech.
Edited by: Art Tech on Jan 2, 2008 8:29 AMHello,
The reason for having a dedicated and seperate hardware for Enterprise search or TREX (Text retrival search and classification) to gain better performance and fast retrival text.
You would point or refer your technical landscapes (Portal, BI, KM, CRM, ECC 6.0 etc.,) to this TREX which is installed on a seperate hardware platform. This will help us to retrive the information fastly from all the above systems to end user desktops.
However, before using enterprise search or TREX you need to download, install and configure the TREX on this desired hardware platform. From Netweaver 7.0, I guess it is part of installed components.
For more information see this [link|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/d5/d79d937d8c47519c254de44b1aa517/frameset.htm] .
Do make some search on service marketplace and sdn forums before implementing.
I hope this help.

EBS 12.1.3 Home Page - Enterprise Search
Does anyone know how to remove the enterprise search from the home page. I do not see how this can be removed through personalizations, is there a system profile to turn this off or is it part of a menu? Please advise. Thanks.

Differences between oracle text in enterprise and express editions
are there any differences between oracle text features found in express edition and ent. edition. if so what are they?
There is a list of features available in the online documentation. The only thing that it mentions as being missing from Oracle Text are the english and french knowledge bases. There isn't any Intermedia or Ultra Search or Data Mining. Here is a link to the 10g Express Edition features guide:
http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/B25329_01/doc/license.102/b25456/toc.htm#BABDDIAE
There is a separate discussion group for 10g Express Edition, that requires a separate free registration:
Oracle Database Express Edition (XE)
There is a thread on this subject in the 10g Express discussion group:
Oracle Text
The above thread includes the following quick comparison:
If it's not in Standard Edition One, it is not in Express Edition. (Therefore everything that is in Enterprise but not in Standard Edition, is also not in Express Edition. That includes all EE-only options.)
If it requires Java in the database, it is not in Express Edition.
Other than that, it's mainly the size limits: 1 CPU (no parallel processing), 1 GB RAM, and 4 GB user-related tablespaces.
