Scaling Recommendations, Semantic Search, & Data Analytics with solrTrey Grainger
This presentation is from the inaugural Atlanta Solr Meetup held on 2014/10/21 at Atlanta Tech Village.
Description: CareerBuilder uses Solr to power their recommendation engine, semantic search, and data analytics products. They maintain an infrastructure of hundreds of Solr servers, holding over a billion documents and serving over a million queries an hour across thousands of unique search indexes. Come learn how CareerBuilder has integrated Solr into their technology platform (with assistance from Hadoop, Cassandra, and RabbitMQ) and walk through api and code examples to see how you can use Solr to implement your own real-time recommendation engine, semantic search, and data analytics solutions.
Speaker: Trey Grainger is the Director of Engineering for Search & Analytics at CareerBuilder.com and is the co-author of Solr in Action (2014, Manning Publications), the comprehensive example-driven guide to Apache Solr. His search experience includes handling multi-lingual content across dozens of markets/languages, machine learning, semantic search, big data analytics, customized Lucene/Solr scoring models, data mining and recommendation systems. Trey is also the Founder of Celiaccess.com, a gluten-free search engine, and is a frequent speaker at Lucene and Solr-related conferences.
This document summarizes how Elasticsearch can be used for scaling analytics applications. Elasticsearch is an open source, distributed search and analytics engine that can index large volumes of data. It automatically shards and replicates data across nodes for redundancy and high availability. Analytics queries like date histograms, statistical facets, and geospatial searches can retrieve insightful results from large datasets very quickly. The document provides an example of using Elasticsearch to perform sentiment analysis, location tagging, and analytical queries on over 100 million social media documents.
Lucene is an open-source information retrieval library written in Java. It was created in 1999 and is now developed by the Apache Software Foundation. Lucene provides full-text search, structured search, highlighting, faceting, and suggestions capabilities. It embeds an inverted index for efficient query execution, a document store to retrieve original data, and a column store for sorting and analytics. Lucene indexes are divided into immutable segments that are periodically merged to reclaim space and improve performance.
The document provides an overview of how search engines and the Lucene library work. It explains that search engines use web crawlers to index documents, which are then stored and searched. Lucene is an open source library for indexing and searching documents. It works by analyzing documents to extract terms, indexing the terms, and allowing searches to match indexed terms. The document details Lucene's indexing and searching process including analyzing text, creating an inverted index, different query types, and using the Luke tool.

ElasticSearch - index server used as a document databaseRobert Lujo
Presentation held on 5.10.2014 on http://2014.webcampzg.org/talks/.
Although ElasticSearch (ES) primary purpose is to be used as index/search server, in its featureset ES overlaps with common NoSql database; better to say, document database.
Why this could be interesting and how this could be used effectively?
Talk overview:
- ES - history, background, philosophy, featureset overview, focus on indexing/search features
- short presentation on how to get started - installation, indexing and search/retrieving
- Database should provide following functions: store, search, retrieve -> differences between relational, document and search databases
- it is not unusual to use ES additionally as an document database (store and retrieve)
- an use-case will be presented where ES can be used as a single database in the system (benefits and drawbacks)
- what if a relational database is introduced in previosly demonstrated system (benefits and drawbacks)
ES is a nice and in reality ready-to-use example that can change perspective of development of some type of software systems.
Elasticsearch is a search engine based on Apache Lucene that provides distributed, full-text search capabilities. It allows users to store and search documents of any structure in near real-time. Documents are organized into indexes, shards, and clusters to provide scalability and fault tolerance. Elasticsearch uses analysis and mapping to index documents for full-text search. Queries can be built using the Elasticsearch DSL for complex searches. While Elasticsearch provides fast search, it has disadvantages for transactional operations or large document churn. Elastic HQ is a web plugin that provides monitoring and management of Elasticsearch clusters through a browser-based interface.

Elasticsearch Sharding Strategy at Tubular LabsTubular Labs
- The document discusses Tubular Labs' sharding strategy for their Elasticsearch clusters which include 3 search clusters, 1 autocomplete cluster, and 1 Elastic Stack cluster.
- They conducted repeatable experiments using Rally to help determine the optimal shard size and number of shards per node. Tests were run against their 2.5 billion document, 4TB production cluster which was CPU intensive.
- The results showed that query performance dropped as the number of shards per node increased. However, loading the cluster more fully in testing yielded better results than their full production cluster, revealing new questions around load distribution and bottlenecks.
Presented on 10/11/12 at the Boston Elasticsearch meetup held at the Microsoft New England Research & Development Center. This talk gave a very high-level overview of Elasticsearch to newcomers and explained why ES is a good fit for Traackr's use case.

Multi-language Content Discovery Through Entity Driven SearchAlessandro Benedetti
This talk is about the description of the implementation of a Semantic Search
Engine based on Solr.
Meaningfully structuring content is critical, Natural Language Processing and
Semantic Enrichment is becoming increasingly important to improve the quality
of Solr search results .
Our solution is based on three advanced features :
Entity-oriented search - Searching not by keyword, but by entities (concepts
in a certain domain).
Knowledge graphs - Leveraging relationships amongst entities: Linked Data
datasets (Freebase, DbPedia, Custom ...)
Search assistance - Autocomplete and Spellchecking are now common features,
but using semantic data makes it possible to offer smarter features, driving
the users to build queries in a natural way.
The approach includes unstructured data processing mechanisms integrated with
Solr to automatically index semantic and multi-language information.
Smart Autocomplete will complete users' query with entity names and
properties from the domain knowledge graph. As the user types, the system
will propose a set of named entities and/or a set of entity types across
different languages. As the user accepts a suggestion, the system will
dynamically adapt following suggestions and return relevant documents.
Semantic More Like This will find similar documents to a seed one, based on
the underlying knowledge in the documents, instead of tokens.
The talk at TYPO3 DevDays 2015 in Nuremberg which explains the deep insights of how search works. TF-IDF algorithm, vector space model and how that is used in Lucene and therefore Solr and Elasticsearch.
