Alcove9 Launches a9 AppConnect for Aras Innovator

By DE Editors

Alcove9 announced that the Alcove9 DeepSearch advanced data access capabilities now extend to include the a9 AppConnect for Aras Innovator, a search solution created by Alcove9 in partnership with Aras PLM.

Now integrated with most product lifecycle management (PLM) applications, Alcove9s Web-based search function locates search criteria within documents and complex CAD libraries, including part numbers, size, textual notes, and attributes. The system supplies Aras Innovator with the geometric attributes of the queried data across multiple file formats, for accurate search results that encompass the entire Aras database, as well as that stored in other unstructured databases outside Aras Innovator.

The a9 AppConnect is embedded within Aras Innovator. This component allows users to trigger searching from within an Aras Innovator working session without a separate sign-on. To gain additional benefits from Aras Innovator, users have the ability to find and use relevant product data located anywhere in the enterprise.
