[News] Open Source Assists Search Development

New Technology Seeks To Let Startups Build Their Own Googles

,----[ Quote ]
| The slow but steady maturation of open source search projects like
| Hadoop, Lucene, and Nutch, combined with the availability of
| affordable, on-demand computing through Amazon Web Services,
| suggest that scalable search infrastructure is well within the
| reach of most startups.
| 
| [...]
| 
| ...as open source projects get used more frequently in
| commercially successful projects, the companies using that software
| drive its development. Krugle's Larsen says his company has helped
| drive the development of Nutch and note that Yahoo continues to push
| Hadoop forward. That kind of work will end up giving future startups
| even more of a leg up.
