Swedish EPiServer joins Google partner program
In a brief press release Swedish CMS vendor ElektroPost today announced that they have signed a partnership agreement with search giant Google. Under the agreement Elektropost will integrate their flagship Web CMS, "EPiServer" with the Google Search Appliance to "provide the same level of search as google.com on their own Web sites." This early partnership likely presages more to come between Google and other CMS vendors. Google does a fine job of searching websites (but searching enterprise content is a different story -- consult The Enterprise Search Report for details), and hungry CMS vendors will want to try to hitch a ride on Google's star. Google should be happy to get more traction on in Scandinavia, home turf of enterprise search competitor FAST.
