Google Caffeine, the project name for the newest reincarnation of the search engine, is launching imminently.
The project first came to light in August 2009, when the Google’s search engineers publicly invited web developers to test the new version of the search engine and give their feedback.
When somebody performs a Google search on one of the hundreds of thousands of Google servers, the engine decides which data centre to send the query to. When project Caffeine goes live, certain people will be able to experience the effects of the new technology if their particular search query is sent to the data centre which has been upgraded.
The exact timing and server locations of the roll out is still unsure, so it is impossible to predict who will reap the benefits of the new technology when it goes live.
Google caffeine is also set to change the way that SEO works too. The new search engine will begin to award higher ranking for websites with a faster download time. Now is the time to begin to optimise your website for speed.
Improving the speed of its search technology is crucially important to Google and other search engines at the moment. The need for real-time search results is a hot issue for search engine companies like Google in a bid to make their services as fast and reliable as possible.
