June 20, 2006 - Bath, UK - CopperEye, an innovator in
enterprise search software that delivers order-of-magnitude performance
improvements and cost savings, today announced that John Wallace has
joined CopperEye as Chairman of its Executive Advisory Board (EAB).
Wallace brings nearly 30 years of IT experience in Europe and served as
the general manager - Group Information Technology at NatWest, one of
the leading UK clearing banks. Most recently Wallace was a founder and
executive chairman of CIO Connect Limited the premier UK organization
addressing the issues and interests of senior IT executives.
Wallace joins six other executives with extensive CIO and COO
experience across key industries, including communications, banking,

Advisory Board.
"Over the past few decades, I have seen remarkable technology
innovations, and experienced first hand the value they can deliver to a
business," noted John Wallace, chairman of CopperEye's Executive
Advisory Board. "The current business environment of dramatically
escalating transaction and data volumes demands a whole new approach to
the cost-effective management and accessing of that same data. In my
opinion, CopperEye is uniquely positioned to address this challenge. I
look forward to working with the other members of CopperEye's newly
formed EAB in helping the company build on its early successes, and
expand into new markets."
"John's financial services background combined with the direct industry
and government experience of the EAB members, will allow CopperEye to
expand its presence beyond the telecommunications, internet, and
messaging service providers," said Kate Mitchell, CEO of CopperEye.
"CopperEye Search, the company's innovative solution for rapidly
accessing precise records from massive amounts of transaction data
stored on low-cost file system storage, has broad applicability for the
financial services, retail, pharmaceutical and government sectors. John
will work with CopperEye and the other EAB members to help raise the
company's visibility with leaders in these markets as a proven
enterprise search innovator capable of delivering enterprise class
software on a global basis in a matter of weeks for a fraction of the
cost of alternative solutions."
CopperEye Search achieves its unique combination of high-performance
and low hardware cost as a software-only solution that delivers rapid
retrieval of specific records from within billions of rows of
structured, unchanging data, stored on low-cost file systems. As a
result, CopperEye Search effectively eliminates cost and complexity as
obstacles to maximizing the value of business transaction data by
allowing companies to create high-performance data repositories for
record-intensive applications at the lowest cost possible in today's
market.

order-of-magnitude cost savings for companies needing to capture, store
and quickly access business transaction data where the volume is
measured in the tens- or hundreds-of-terabytes. This is increasingly
important as corporate data volumes more than double every year and
government regulations require companies to keep data longer. Using
CopperEye, companies are able to improve global business operations and
implement more powerful business applications at dramatically lower
costs than competing solutions. CopperEye's underlying technology is a
new, patented indexing approach that delivers a quantum leap in
performance over traditional indexing alternatives.
