Goals• Provide engineers and scientists with the capability to easily find technical
information helping NASA have successful missions
• Provide unified search of disparate internal and external data sources to increase the use of corporate and published information.
• Provide a simple, easy-to-use, Google-like interface and search experience
• Decrease the time lost to ineffective search of multiple sources and interfaces ,and increase the productivity of the technical community

Implementation Approach
• Partnered with Google and leveraged their technical expertise
• Partnered with Langley network and security experts
• Engaged and partnered with users/technical community
User interface; Source identification; Testing
• Implemented in Phases
Phase I: Proof of Concept
o Center Web Sites, e-Subscriptions, google.com subset, document repositories
Phase II: Langley Google Beta
o User feedback and enhanced usability; Expanded content
Phase III: Full Center Implementation
o User Outreach and Communications
Phase IV: Enhanced Functionality and Content
o Refining Results; User feedback; Alerts; Enhanced Statistics
