July 22, 2008
ThomasNet, the Industrial NewsRoom [sic], reported on July 21, 2008, that Kugle has rolled out a search appliance. You can read the full news story here. Krugle is a search and metadata processing vendor specializing in code. The Enterprise 2.3 system can now handle over 10 billion lines of source code per appliance. You can learn more here. Krugle is a vertical search engine, if you are looking for an example of this type of niche strategy.
Appliances are now available from a number of vendors to make deployment of search less painful. Krugle joins Exegy, Clearwell Systems, Google, Index Engines, and Thunderstone, among others, in the appliance sector.
Why?
The costly and time consuming track record some search vendors have compiled is is great marketing program for search appliances. A search disaster causes the phone to ring at an appliance vendor’s office. Plug it in and go is often preferable to paying for a phalanx of vendor engineers drinking coffee in the cafeteria to fill out their time sheets and talk about multi-core processors.
