We are also able to index any number of custom fields, which has proven to be very valuable. We are waiting for authorization from Apache to use the name Lucene in our documentation. Once recieved, this suite will be offered for free.
It's really amazing how well this search engine works. It is far more flexible than Verity.
For the time being, i would suggest getting a hold of Lindex from the DRK.

Just so's you know: this "Lindex" (I posted about it a little while
ago). The CFDJ article was working off the fact that it was shipped
with the DevNet Resource Kit 3.
Note that you don't NEED the DRK to use it (the product itself is
open-source) but the DRK does have some nice tools and docs about it.

Eric,
There have been a few articles in recent CFDJ's that discuss a JAVA
alternative to VERITY. I don't recall the name of the program or the
CFDJ
issues off hand, but if you don't find the information on the CFDJ site
(www.sys-con.com <http://www.sys-con.com/> ) contact me off list and
I'll
try to dig up the information for you.
Thank you,
Jason Egan

WE have been having terrible times with our Verity collections
corrupting,
being unable to update etc at our host and am looking for alternatives.
It simply queries a database and a lot of fields, some quite
lengthy...so
not sure a simply SQL query is an option, but are there other solutions
everyone is using for higher end and more robust searches of your sites?
Thanks for any pointers in advance!
Regards,
Eric J. Hoffman
