Google is set to unveil two new enterprise search products--a new Google Search Appliance and a next generation Google Mini--targeted at large enterprises and small organizations respectively.

The new Google Search Appliance integrates Google's OneBox technology that will allows companies to offer search short cuts to commonly asked questions across their business applications, such as corporate contact directory, customer resource management and financial programs.

The new Google Search Appliance, for which pricing starts at US$30,000, also has improved security and performance increases over the previous Search Appliance, Google said.

Meanwhile, the new Google Mini is targeted at small businesses and is faster and half the size and weight of the original Mini. It costs just under US$2,000.

Google also is launching an enterprise developer program.
