Oracle Endeca Guided Search is one of the available options in the market to achieve the search optimization, personalization and SEO benefits. Oracle Endeca provides configurable and  dynamic merchandizing platform for business users(merchandisers) to change the page/layout/content in few easy steps using experience manager.

Oracle has started moving the search solutions to cloud and its available as Oracle cloud commerce. Oracle has not added major functionalities on standalone/on-prim Endeca versions since last 2-3 years. Most of retail/e-commerce business are thinking to move their search platform  to Artificial Intelligence/ Machine Learning based platform to provide better personalized contents to end users.

Now Oracle Endeca fails to meet customer expectations today due to no further roadmaps and looking for new solutions.

There are such a large number of search platform accessible in the market that can conceivably supersede Endeca. Lucidworks Fusion is one of them and provides cloud/on-prim solutions.

Lucidworks provide AI-powered search and merchandising applications for some of the world's largest brands. Fusion, Lucidworks advanced development platform, provides the enterprise-grade capabilities needed to design, develop and deploy intelligent search apps at any scale. Lucidworks uses Apache Solr as core search engine for fusion platform.

Lucidworks has recently introduced predictive merchandiser as part of Fusion 5.1 that has most of similar features as Oracle Endeca Experience manager along with powerful analytics dashboard.

Lucidworks Fusion is the data discovery platform that gives users contextual, personally relevant search results and proactive recommendations with artificial intelligence that augments their human intelligence.  Here is architecture diagram

According to my investigation and comprehension, Lucidworks is the right platform to move out from Oracle Endeca and get practically all comparable functionalities like Endeca alongside machine learning and AI powered search.

More blog will be available soon with detailed comparison with Lucidworks/Endeca/other search platform.

Note - SEO functionality is not available in Lucidworks.
