Inktomi was founded in 1996 by two University of California at Berkeley researcher. They were working on a federally-funded project, and developed a way to achieve supercomputer power at microcomputer prices by "clustering" off-the-shelf workstations and personal computers. The first application built on this platform was a prototype search engine.
The Inktomi Search Engine now powers many of the world's leading search sites, including HotBot.com, NBC's Snap.com, Yahoo.com and the Disney Internet Guide (DIG) for children and families. They also provides services for the @Home Network, N2H2, GoTo.com, Anzwers in Australia, Nippon Telegraph and Telephone's (NTT) Goo site in Japan, RadarUOL in Brazil, and Southam in Canada.
