* Enterprise Search 2008 Wrap-Up

Lynda Moulton (The Gilbane Group) with a short summary on Enterprise Search in the year 2008. Including business developments at the big players (Microsoft and FAST, IBM and OmniFind), search/text mining technologies and a lot of interesting company names in the field of Enterprise Search and beyond.

* New Stuff in Lucene and Solr

Solr insider Grant Ingersoll about the development of new hot stuff for Apache Solr. I’m really excited about the SpatialSearch feature which provides some kind of geo search (there was also an introduction of local search by Chris Hostetter at ApacheCon 2008 here).

    Saying i gave an introduction of local search at ApacheCon is somewhat misleading: i just used to the LocalSolr project as one of my examples of a Solr Plugin that could be found in the wild.

    Patrick has some much more detailed introductions to LocalLucene/LocalSolr online…

    http://locallucene.wiki.sourceforge.net/LocalSolr+Demo

    People should also keep an eye on the patches in this Solr issue…

    https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-773

    …where work is being done to integrate LocalSolr directly into Solr.
