I came across 2 of them at an ITAD I was working at a few years ago. A few of us were in a bidding war between ourselves until it got listed on eBay and sold for a lot more than any of us wanted to put down (and way more than we were making, fuck that job)

That on prem solution cost minimum $50k USD.
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.
