Open Search Server

June 14, 2011

TechWorld’s “Open Search Server Releases New Developer Preview” offers details on a preview of a new Apache Lucene-based search system.

Written in Java, the article reports that:

Open Search Server can crawl file systems, databases and websites” and supports a wide variety of document formats. The preview includes “a new screenshot feature that captures screenshots of the Web pages being crawled, similar to the preview feature of a big name public search engine.

The open software offers companies independence in developing their information management strategies. In the “Cloud” era, these strategies – how users will be able to search and retrieve documents – will become strategic.

If you are tracking open source search vendors, add this one to your list.
