Google Caffeine Now Live On One Google Data Center

As expected the Google Caffeine index is now live on one Google data center. Note, it will not be added to more Google data centers until after the holidays.

As I reported at the Search Engine Roundtable, Matt Cutts of Google confirmed that the IP 209.85.225.103 is hitting the data center that is running the Caffeine index about 50% of the time. Matt Cutts explained that the update webmasters were noticing were either this data center or individual sites being penalized in some way.

Again, Caffeine is live on a single data center which is currently accessible about 50% of the time on 209.85.225.103. Matt may or may not give us a single IP which returns Caffeine results a 100% of the time, time will tell on that.
