Dell has cuddled right on up to Google, agreeing to hawk search appliances directly to customers.

A deal like this has been in the making for some time, since Dell actually provides the hardware for the Google Search Appliance. Google has relied on the PowerEdge 2950 rather than making custom hardware as it does for its own data centers. There is, however, some level of customization that takes place to turn Dell's box into an indexing wonder.

Protect Your Information
Since 2005, over 165 million personal information data records have been compromised in the US alone2. Dell recognizes the growing importance of information security and is committed to ensuring the confidentiality, integrity and availability of data. Today’s PowerEdge servers are the most secure servers that Dell has ever produced.



The PowerEdge 2950 III server includes an industry standard Trusted Platform Module (TPM) which supports a variety of information security software packages that help customers reduce risk. The internal components on the PowerEdge 2950 III are physically and logically locked down, preventing unauthorized access. For example, customers deploying USB security tokens can install them in the internal USB port. The PowerEdge 2950 III PERC6/i RAID controller also now supports RAID levels 6 and 60, providing fault tolerance even in the event of a failure of two hard disks.
