Searching documents in e-discovery should be fast. No one has time to wait for a database to churn out search results. Fortunately, most of today’s hosted document review platforms are speedy enough, but could they be faster?

That’s a question that John Tredennick and his team at Catalyst Repository Systems, Inc., set out to answer several years ago when they started to push the limits of current technology in their larger cases. The "structured query language" (SQL) that most platforms use requires data to be placed in some kind of a structure before it can be searched. But most of the data involved in e-discovery is unstructured in the form of email, Word documents, text files, etc. That’s why Tredennick and the Catalyst team turned to an XML-based back end for their new Insight document review platform.
