Look inside

When Lucene first appeared, this superfast search engine was nothing short of amazing. Today, Lucene still delivers. Its high-performance, easy-to-use API, features like numeric fields, payloads, near-real-time search, and huge increases in indexing and searching speed make it the leading search tool.

And with clear writing, reusable examples, and unmatched advice, Lucene in Action, Second Edition is still the definitive guide to effectively integrating search into your applications. This totally revised book shows you how to index your documents, including formats such as MS Word, PDF, HTML, and XML. It introduces you to searching, sorting, and filtering, and covers the numerous improvements to Lucene since the first edition. Source code is for Lucene 3.0.1.

what's inside

  • Performing hot backups
  • Using numeric fields
  • Tuning for indexing or searching speed
  • Boosting matches with payloads
  • Creating reusable analyzers
  • Adding concurrency with threads
  • Four new case studies
  • Much more!

Elegant, and easy to read - just like Lucene itself.
