Abstract

This section presents case studies on the deployment of Google Search Appliance in various companies. As medical technology leader with $8 billion in annual revenues, Medtronic enables medical professionals to develop comprehensive solutions to chronic conditions such as heart disease, neurological disorders, and vascular illnesses. Medtronic's 30,000 employees, especially research scientists and engineers, must be able to access each other's internal information such as published papers, recent medical journal abstracts and presentations. Another company in which the Google Search Appliance was deployed is Xerox Corp. The global leader in document management, the company generated $16 billion in revenue in 2003. The company offers an innovative array of color and black-and-white digital printers, digital presses, multifunction devices as well as a broad range of services, solutions, and software. At another company, USATODAY.com, more than 35 million people depend on the company each month for the same breaking news and informational graphics they find in each printed issue of USA TODAY. This award-winning news and information site delivers more than 250,000 pages of breaking news, updated 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
