Google Enterprise launched two things today. First, they put out version 5.0 of the yellow “cheese box” Google Search Appliance. The new version has an enterprise connector framework for connecting to intranet services, platforms, applications, databases and hosted services (like Microsoft Sharepoint and IBM FileNet) as well as enhenaced security.
Also launched, Google Enterprise Labs, where enterprise customers can download new experimental features for the Search Appliances and Google Mini systems. It launches with a search-as-you-type application that can be applied to any text field that queries the Appliance and shows rich preview, complete with thumbnails and category grouping. Also, it has Do-it-Yourself Keymatches, which lets users add smart answers to the top of search results, and Parametric Search, which accesses your metadata to provide seperate sidebar navigation through that data.
