What
Gemini enterprise search is a managed RAG service on air-gapped Google Distributed Cloud for sovereign and regulated organizations.
How
Uploaded files go to object storage; the backend records metadata in PostgreSQL and splits files into chunks. Answers cite sources and support multimodal documents.
Why it matters
