• that your organization owns and controls
THE PARADOX OF
ENTERPRISE SEARCH
6
Search is Easy!?
Find is the REAL Challenge!
I want “Google-like” Search in my
Enterprise
• How many dedicated resources do you
have?
• Google has 3000+ employees working on
ranking only…
• Do you really want to get millions of
results?
• Or just the relevant ones?
9
I want “Google-like” Search in my
Enterprise
• Do your users care of Enterprise SEO?
• Or they just want to get their jobs done?
• Can you motivate them more/differently?
• (Do they know what it is at all?...)
10
I want “Google-like” Search in my
Enterprise
• How about security?
• Enterprise Search has to provide security
trimmed results.
• How about User Experience?
• You really cannot imagine anything better
than Google?!...

Search as an Application
Search as an Application
• Main goal: to help decision making
• Search is no longer the white box + “10 blue lines”
• Content lives in disparate locations
• Structured and unstructured content lives in different
locations
• Need to aggregate content according to
– Process
– Context
– Customer
– Goal
– Program
– Combination of any of these
THE PARADOX OF
INFORMATION ARCHITECTURE
14
The Paradox of Content
• Less Content – Less Value
• More Content – More Garbage
Information Overload
The average person receives
63,000 words of new
information every day.
Average length of a
novel: 64.531 words
If you wanted to read
everything you’ve got in 2013,
it would take you the first
three months of 2014!
What we give to the search engine… What the search engine sees…
