Lucidworks Launches Fusion 4 with AI and Portable Applications

Lucidworks, a provider of search-driven applications, has announced Fusion 4, the latest version of its enterprise-grade development platform for building intelligent search apps.

According to the company, the new release supports portable applications with search and AI capabilities, and enabling rapid experimentation, configuration, and delivery across any architecture.  

In addition, flexible deployment and reuse of applications across teams, business units, data centers, and even companies, reduces time-to-value and helps smaller teams have a bigger impact.

Lucidworks customers are global organizations that need a reactive and flexible platform that lets them adapt to hybrid run-time environments including on premise, private cloud, and public cloud infrastructures, said Lucidworks CEO Will Hayes, noting that with Fusion 4, the company has brought that portability to application development so customers can create and run apps that best fit their security and operational constraints.

Fusion 4 also debuts a framework for running experiments and measuring and visualizing the results in real time, so teams can run tests on live data and users in production. By combining this framework with a new suite of AI capabilities for analyzing content and user interactions, Fusion says the new release enables continuous improvement of relevancy and the user experience. Experimentation and relevancy tuning can be automatic or manually configured through an intuitive UI, enabling small teams to deliver mission-critical, smart search solutions with high ROI.
