As Energy companies produce, store, and consume more and more business information, volume grows and the investment needed to manage complexity increases. Yet much of this content remains difficult to manage and access. Fulcrum Research claims that 80% of enterprise content is unstructured (stored in things like Word docs and .pdfs, as opposed to structured data bases, CRM systems, etc.), and Forrester Research asserts that content volume is growing at a rate of 200% annually. At this rate, the volume of data stored in many organizations reaches the point of "too much information" - in other words, where the levels of information actually interfere with productivity rather than contribute to it.

The Google Search Appliance (GSA) offers simple, high-value search solutions to help Energy companies decrease IT costs and maximize ROI. The GSA features the familiar, powerful Google interface – recognized by users worldwide – which minimizes training for both IT and end users. One GSA unit is capable of indexing millions of documents across diverse content sources and formats, helping users navigate information that might otherwise be difficult to locate.
