Discovery Mining Inc Information

Discovery Mining was founded in 2002 during the infancy of the electronic discovery market. It is headquartered in the Presidio of San Francisco. The company's patent-pending, hosted document storage, review and archiving platform has the potential to radically change both the Litigation Support and Document Life Cycle Management markets. A software application running on a supercomputer composed of Linux computer clusters, Discovery Mining's technology allows faster and cheaper indexing, retrieval, conversion, metadata extraction, and deletion of large data sets regardless of file format. Discovery Mining's technology pedigree has its origins in the team's experience with cluster computing and data mining while working for Amazon.com's subsidiary -- Alexa Internet. At Alexa the team managed a 200-Terabyte cluster computer, a complete archive of the Web. Discovery Mining has combined high-powered Intel-compatible hardware and open source operating systems with innovative proprietary code to create a scalable, powerful, cost-efficient supercomputing platform for electronic document management. This is the basis of Discovery Mining's litigation support products and services.
