Product Description


Apache Solr Succinctly:

This book is for developers in the software industry. Who are looking for a gentle introduction to creating enterprise-scale search solutions. It’s for the project managers whose technical teams are telling them, “We desperately need a search solution in our project.” It’s for the bosses and the administrators who’ve never had to build or maintain a search solution before.Outside the firewall search is a powerful tool for selling. Think, for example, of eBay and Amazon. A good search in an e-commerce site allows a customer to find what he or she is looking for and purchase. Ka-ching! The cash register is happy! Inside the firewall search helps find preexisting items, related work, or internal documents. All of which allow employees to leverage the technology to their advantage and avoid duplicating work.

Search is Everywhere:

Internet search, mainly because of Google, has an interesting side effect: people expect search everywhere.
There are billions of people trained in search on a global scale. Something you simply couldn’t afford to pay the training costs for. Yet, Google by its very way of doing business did just this. And mostly for zero cost, ensuring billions of daily searches as of 2013, and growing.
Where do we see search applications? You have YAHOO! for web search. A search box in the top right for your files in Windows Explorer, Spotlight in Mac, the Charms bar in Windows 8, Bing, Outlook, iPhone, and Android; the list is huge and seemingly never-ending.
