Lucid Imagination Presents a free technical webinar: Mastering the Lucene Index Wednesday, August 11, 2010 11:00 AM PST / 2:00 PM EST / 20:00 CET Sign up here: http://www.eventsvc.com/lucidimagination/081110?trk-AP Lucene/Solr index implementation is critical to the performance of your search application and the quality of your results -- and not just at indexing time. If you're developing applications in Lucene/Solr, your index will reward care and attention -- adding power to your running search application -- all the more so as you inevitably increase the scope of your query traffic and the dimensions of your data. Join Andrzej Bialecki, Lucene Committer and inventor of the Luke index utility, for an advanced workshop on cutting edge techniques for keeping your Lucene/Solr index at its peak potential. Andrzej will discuss and present essential strategies for index post-processing, including: * Single-pass index splitting -- reshaping indexes for flexible deployment * Index pruning, filtering and multi-tiered search, or how to serve indexes (mostly) from RAM * Bit-wise search -- or how to find the best bit-wise matches - and applications in text fingerprinting About the presenter: Andrzej Bialecki is a committer of the Apache Lucene project, a Lucene PMC member, and chairman of the Apache Nutch project. He is also the author of Luke, the Lucene Index Toolbox. Andrzej participates in many commercial projects that use Lucene, Solr, Nutch and Hadoop to implement enterprise and vertical search.
