Kapow Software, a Kofax company and leading big data integration software provider, today announced it is working with Oracle on data integration for Oracle Endeca Information Discovery. In combination with Kapow Software's data integration technology, which will be marketed and sold by Oracle as Oracle Endeca Information Discovery Web Data Acquisition Toolkit, organizations can now use the enterprise data discovery platform for rapid, intuitive exploration and analysis of information from any unstructured external data source.

The new collaboration extends access to even more unstructured data sources offering users a deeper perspective of customers, markets and business processes. The improved ability to unlock insights from any data source allows business leaders to come to more meaningful conclusions and make informed decisions faster.

Kapow Software's technology, which has achieved Oracle Validated Integration with Oracle WebCenter Content, provides access to a wide variety of data sources - ranging from structured to unstructured - residing in databases, standard APIs, file and email systems, web applications, on-premise and cloud applications, content management systems and other data sources.

"In today's data-driven economy, businesses rely on multiple disparate data sources to make critical decisions, improve customer experience, protect brands and stay competitive in the market," said Karl Ederle, Chief Product Officer at Kapow Software. "Increasingly, they need to incorporate unstructured external data with internal data to address modern enterprise needs."

"One of the biggest challenges of data discovery is the integration of hard-to-mine, unstructured data dispersed across the web," said Keith Johnson, group vice president, Oracle Software Development. "We continue to team with big data technology leaders such as Kapow Software to provide companies with an advanced platform for rapid data exploration and analysis."

With Kapow Enterprise 9.2, timely information is delivered to the right employees at the right time for business agility. Instead of relying on costly consultants or slow, expensive infrastructure rollouts, companies can now act on valuable insights quickly to accelerate business and add to the bottom line.

Kapow is a Gold level member of Oracle PartnerNetwork (OPN).
