Our friends at Google yesterday introduced its new Google Search Appliance (GSA) 6.0, which we’re pleased to tell you is powered by Dell PowerEdge servers from Dell’s OEM Industry Solutions Group (Dell OEM). Specifically, the new search appliances leverage Dell’s PowerEdge R710 servers, part of Dell’s 11th generation of PowerEdge servers that were introduced earlier this year.

Google is selling the search appliance to corporations as a server with enterprise search software to enable companies to index and retrieve data stored on their corporate Web systems. According to Google, the new appliance can index up to 30 million documents, which when connected with other appliances, can now search billions of corporate documents.

Check out this post talking about Google’s Search Appliance which is powered by Dell PowerEdge servers, interestingly they seem to be based on Dell’s PowerEdge R710 – very cool, I’ll need to read up more about the R710, I do wonder how one of the Google Search Appliances would work in the enterprise? Wouldn’t they be great in terms of finding the information you need within the enterprise, even on a simple level – that documentation for building a server etc, or the standards documentation? An interesting post, do check it out.
