That on prem solution cost minimum $50k USD. In the early 2000s. That's like one condo in today's money 🤣
I was in IT at the time and we'd been using a Microsoft index server solution to search our data at the time.
IDK, I think google was never focused on anything particular except profit.
I worked at a company for a while that had one of these set up.... It wasn't great.
I can't describe it, but it was just bad. Compared to what Google search could actually do, this felt like the most basic kind of indexing possible by comparison.
That search actively made my job harder.
It was bizarre.
