Just yesterday, Google announced its latest search appliance that utilizes the Cloud Connect, a highly useful technology for business organizations. This technology allows the users to search information, share files and manage content effectively. It not only aids in better productivity, but also delivers comprehensive results.

For businesses utilizing Google tools, the update also provides a centralized feature for management purposes-a trend taking several forms across the industry as a whole, as some semblance of unified communications becomes a necessity behind the virtualization journey.

From Google’s Enterprise blog:

“As you move your business to the cloud, the Google Search Appliance’s new features can be an important bridge between on-premise and cloud-based systems, while enhancing employee collaboration.”

A brief breakdown of how the new search appliance is integrated:
