Index Data

Index Data is a software development and consulting enterprise headquartered in Copenhagen and the United States, with offices in several countries. Our customers and partners include national libraries and consortia, government agencies, and commercial companies. Our business is to seek out the most challenging problems in the area of metasearching and large-scale content indexing, and to engineer industrial-strength tools to solve those problems. Our open-source protocol implementations are the most widely used in the industry and have had significant impact on both the evolution and penetration of international standards like Z39.50 and SRU. Because of our long history in this area, and our focus on building flexible, reusable tools for developers and organizations, our partners can focus their attention on adding value and on creating compelling user experiences. Our primary activity is software development: we are constantly expanding our toolset and we undertake development projects that deploy those tools in end-user applications. We also offer implementation assistance and ongoing support, as well as training and consultancy. We have deep experience and a pragmatic, result-oriented approach to software development. Our international team of software engineers bring an eclectic variety of backgrounds and interests to the table, but we all share a love of creative, innovative solutions, and exploring the cutting edge of our domain.
