Hi all, One of the things we've got cooking at Basho HQ is a plan to roll the functionality currently in the riak_search project into the default Riak distribution. This means that using riak_search will become a matter of flipping a configuration switch versus running a whole separate instance. This will make it easier to use and deploy .
As part of this merging process, we've realized that while having Java-based analyzers is useful in some circumstances, it also imposes a lot of overhead per search-query (if you're using it) and adds an unwieldy dependency on the JDK to the Riak server. All the deployments we're aware of do NOT use the Java-based analyzers; i.e. the default, Erlang-based analyzers provide the necessary functionality with much lower overhead. So, I'm soliciting YOUR feedback on the removal of Java-based analyzers in riak_search. Are you using it in production and would you miss it if it was gone? Thanks, D. -- Dave Smith Director, Engineering Basho Technologies, Inc.
