Re:Wouldn't it be fun to build your own Google? by nemothekid on Wednesday December 10, 2014 @03:34PM (#8731515)
I think "full-text indexing" is a very different problem than "search."

Full-text indexing (what ES provides) has been around for almost forever, ES just does a way better job of productizing/delivering it.

However, Google is far more than a text index. Ranking, currently is still very difficult and requires messing around with facet and weighting parameters.
