Google SA

Posted on August 8, 2008

Google SA stands for Google Search Appliance, the aptly described box that resides inside an organizations IT structure and provides employees with high speed search of company documents.

It’s the high end version of the site search capability offered by Google for individual websites, able to handle your company’s needs.

In fact, Google is about to roll out an updated version that helps companies and governmental organizations search through all the documents they have entrusted to it. The latest model of the Google Search Appliance is able to store up to 10 million documents in a single box.

Google has also upped the encryption capability for better security and is using Google Alerts to let users know when new documents are being placed on the network by their colleagues. Google Search Appliances now supports up to 27 languages and delivers search results in 40 different languages.

Oh, and the hardware it runs on? It’s a Dell, dude!
