Case Study: Franciscan University of Steubenville unifies search across 26 websites with eWay Corp on AWS

Franciscan University of Steubenville unifies search across 26 websites with eWay Corp

Franciscan University of Steubenville faced a challenge with its web presence, which was fragmented across 26 individual marketing websites. Each site had its own isolated search function that did not return results from any of the other sites, forcing visitors to know exactly which website to search in advance. The university engaged eWay Corp to create a unified search solution that would work across its entire web presence without disrupting existing editorial workflows.

eWay Corp built an AWS-native search appliance using Elasticsearch, Angular, and Node.js. The solution provided a single, mobile-responsive search interface that returns results from all 26 websites and allows visitors to filter by content category. The outcome was a unified visitor experience with near-real-time indexing and a modular architecture for future growth. eWay continues to manage the entire AWS hosting environment and search infrastructure for the university.
