whitepaper Deploying and Supporting Enterprise Search: Using SharePoint Server 2007 to Help Employees Locate Information and People at Microsoft2007-07-01 Microsoft
  Read this paper to see why the solution to the problem of identifying and crawling the information that Microsoft has stored on a variety of internal content sources—and to keep the index up to date with new content and content types that are added in the future—is the Enterprise Search feature provided in Microsoft® Office SharePoint® Server 2007. The new enhancements of the Search feature incorporate fast searching and the Indexing Service. Fast searching builds off the Indexing Service of Microsoft Office 2000 to create database catalogs of the Microsoft Office files that are available on a computer's hard disk, in projects, and in Office SharePoint Web folders. Microsoft built the Indexing Service feature from the Index Server technology of Microsoft Windows® 2000 to create a better cataloging experience for fast searching and to offer the ability to search any Microsoft Office file for information that the file contains.
