whitepaper PBS and the Google Search Appliance2009-01-01 Google
  The Public Broadcasting Service (PBS) is a 34-year-old private nonprofit media enterprise, owned and operated by 349 U.S. public television stations. As with any site providing information that can change frequently, search is increasingly important to PBS. But budget constraints and earlier decisions had led the organization to rely on a freeware search application that was no longer up to the task of supporting millions of users. Using Google Search Appliance, PBS no longer worried about operating system compatibility to run the search engine, and software updates are included in the license.

whitepaper Food and Drug Administration and the Google Search Appliance2009-01-01 Google
  The FDA is a scientific, regulatory and public health agency that works to ensure the safety, efficacy, and security of human and veterinary drugs, biological products, medical devices, U.S. food supply, and cosmetics. For over 10 years, GlobalNet Services, Inc. has supported the Food and Drug Administration with technology integration and Internet strategies. The FDA was running an older search engine for its public site at www.fda.gov with mixed results. The search function was not consistently reliable or speedy, nor was it accurate in the information it returned. The FDA wanted a better solution. FDA deployed Google Search Appliance with the built-in redundancy and reliability of this model would be a good match for the challenge.

whitepaper The World Bank and the Google Search Appliance2009-01-01 Google
  The World Bank Group is one of the world's largest sources of financial assistance for developing countries. The World Bank intranet contains documents in all the standard business applications and in every format from HTML to PDF. The search application made it difficult to access all sites across the network, or return useful results on environmental assessment policy, education project details, or poverty statistics. World Bank Group deployed Google Search Appliance GB-1001 which was painless. Several organization-wide email messages informed the staff of the switch, and the web team offered a few demonstrations. Also, no formal training was necessary.

whitepaper Xerox and the Google Search Appliance2009-01-01 Google
  Generating $16 billion in revenue in 2002, Xerox Corporation is the global leader in the document management business. The Group intranet contains thousands of PDF and HTML files and a smaller number of Microsoft Office documents, all hosted on one Solaris server running Apache. It had a very small budget to work with, and needed to find an inexpensive solution that didn't require a lot of effort. The low cost and easy deployment the Google Search Appliance offers won Smith over. They purchased the GB-1001, which can crawl up to 150,000 documents. Also, it required no additional resources to deploy.

whitepaper The National Park Service and the Google Search Appliance2009-01-01 Google
  A bureau of the U.S. Department of the Interior, The National Park Service (NPS) has protected America's parks and monuments since 1916.

whitepaper Secure Enterprise Search: Version 10.1.8.42009-01-01 Oracle
  Internet searches have shown that significant information uplift can accrue from search technology. Without search engines, the Internet would still have billions of web pages, but surfers would have to know URLs a priori, or navigate through directories, to locate pages of interest. Clearly it is Search that makes Google popular, and the Internet more useful even as the amount of information on it grows at a rapid pace. Proliferation of information also exists in the enterprise; however enterprises have so far not benefited from the information uplift that good search provides. This has been largely due to the differences between the Intranet and the Internet.
