Fishbowl Solutions, an Oracle WebCenter Content and Portal Specialized Gold Partner and a Google Enterprise Partner, has announced the release of their Google Search Appliance (GSA) Connector Version 2.5 for Oracle WebCenter Content. This release adds support for Google Search Appliance 7.0 released by Google on October 16th, and provides more search features to Oracle WebCenter users.

Highlights of this release include support for additional GSA features including:

●      Dynamic Navigation – Attribute-based navigation allows users to filter results by metadata values

●      Key Match Results – Associates a keyword with a particular result, to feature content or direct users to especially relevant items

●      Dynamic Result Clusters – Automatically generated search suggestions provide alternate search terms to users

●      Related Queries – Additional query suggestions set up for particular keywords

●      OneBox Results – Real-time access to external systems through custom search modules  

These features are exposed through both the ready-to-use Oracle WebCenter Google Search page and the Fishbowl Google Search API.

Fishbowl’s connector also includes added configuration flexibility for assigning the Google Title on Microsoft Office documents and Oracle Site Studio pages. This enables customers to improve result relevancy and take better advantage of the Google search algorithm by leveraging Google’s intrinsic title weighting.

Version 2.5 introduces support for the Google /click protocol exposing Google’s Self-learning Scorer to automatically analyze user click-patterns and fine tune relevance.
