From the website:
Lucene is an Open Source, mature and high-performance Java search engine. It is highly flexible, and scalable from hundreds to millions of documents.
Luke is a handy development and diagnostic tool, which accesses already existing Lucene indexes and allows you to display and modify their content in several ways:
- browse by document number, or by term
- view documents / copy to clipboard
- retrieve a ranked list of most frequent terms
- execute a search, and browse the results
- analyze search results
- selectively delete documents from the index
- reconstruct the original document fields, edit them and re-insert to the index
- optimize indexes
- open indexes consisting of multiple parts, and located on Hadoop filesystem
- and much more…
Searching is interesting and I have several more search engines to report this week, but the real payoff is finding.
And recording the finding so that other users can benefit from it.
We could all develop our own maps of the London Underground, at the expense of repeating the effort of others.
Or, we can purchase a copy of the London Underground.
Which one seems more cost effective for your organization?
