> Hi,
> A few us at IBM Almaden Research Center built a distributed text index 
> prototype called HIndex. The key design point of HIndex is to build the index 
> by leveraging the distributed control layer in HBase, for availability, 
> elasticity and load balancing. In our prototype, we used Lucene to implement 
> a new type of region for storing the text index. Attached is a research paper 
> that we wrote and submitted to USENIX 2009. It covers the design of HIndex 
> and a performance evaluation (some of the results are applicable to HBase 
> too).
> We are grateful for the HBase community. We welcome comments and suggestions.
> Jun
