Sphinx is an open source full text search server, designed from the
|
|
ground up with performance, relevance (aka search quality), and
|
|
integration simplicity in mind. It's written in C++ and works on Linux
|
|
(RedHat, Ubuntu, etc), Windows, MacOS, Solaris, FreeBSD, and a few
|
|
other systems.
|
|
|
|
Sphinx lets you either batch index and search data stored in an SQL
|
|
database, NoSQL storage, or just files quickly easily and or index and
|
|
search data on the fly, working with Sphinx pretty much as with a
|
|
database server.
|
|
|
|
A variety of text processing features enable fine-tuning Sphinx for
|
|
your particular application requirements, and a number of relevance
|
|
functions ensures you can tweak search quality as well.
|
|
|
|
Searching via SphinxAPI is as simple as 3 lines of code, and querying
|
|
via SphinxQL is even simpler, with search queries expressed in good
|
|
old SQL.
|
|
|
|
Sphinx clusters scale up to billions of documents and tens of millions
|
|
search queries per day, powering top websites such as Craigslist,
|
|
DailyMotion, NetLog, etc.
|
|
|
|
And last but not least, it's open-sourced under GPLv2, and the
|
|
community edition is free to use.
