I am creating what is effectively a search engine. Content is collected via spiders at then is inserted into my database and becomes searchable and filterable.
I invision there being around 90K records to be searched at any one time. The content is blog posts and forum posts so we are basically looking at full text with some additional filters based on location, category and date posted. What is really important to me is speed and relevancy. The index size or index time really isn’t too big of an issue. From the benchmarks I have seen it looks like Sphinx is much faster at querying data and showing results, but that Solr has improved relevancy. My website is coded entirely in PHP and I am planning on using a MYSQL database. Can anyone please give me a bit of input and help me decide which product might be better suited to me.
