Enterprise search is much like air and water: Users expect it to be available without a second thought. Google and ISYS continue to perfect their enterprise offerings to do just that.
The first thought that comes to mind when one hears the name Google Inc. isn't exactly "enterprise IT vendor." And yet, the company qualifies as such. True, it's a recent and small entrant, but Google seems intent on becoming a powerful player in this space.
Google Inc. has rolled out several new features to its Search Appliance, an integrated hardware and software device designed for use behind corporate firewalls. The Mountain View, Calif.-based company also announced a slew of new enterprise customers including The Boeing Co., Cisco Systems Inc., and The World Bank.
