GSA Overview

The Long Winding Down

What did the GSA attempt to solve?

Hidden in Plain Sight

In 2016...Why can’t I find what I’m looking for?

80% of all data is unstructured.

Information Workers spend 2.5 hours a day searching for information.

known knowns, known unknowns, unknown unknowns and unknown knowns.

Where we’re at today.

Last chance to get your GSA - Enjoy 2 year sales through 2016.

GSA Introduction - First Google product for enterprises in the

market.

Goodbye GSA - No new sales. Appliances start to shut off.

No new sales - Get 1 year extensions through 2017.

Plan your Transition

Plan early plan often

It Starts with an Assessment

What did you aim to accomplish by implementing a Google Search Appliance

High Level Questions for Assessment

+ How many GSA’s do we have?

+ Which part of the business owns the GSA’s?

+ Do you have resources allocated to keep them working?

+ What connectors/content sources are being indexed?

+ Deployment done with internal/external resources?

+ Are Analytics being tracked and reported?

We have an assessment guide to help

Did your GSA initiative achieve its goals

Audit the GSA to determine what it was meant to...was it successful

Did we achieve our goals?

+ Assess accomplishments to original goal?

+ Do you want an OEM equivalent?

+ Identified gaps that should be resolved in any migration?

The transition.
