Open Source Java Search Engines

The Hibernate projects offer a suite of powerful Java libraries to work with data. It is best known for Hibernate ORM, which provides relational persistence for Java models and is an implementation of the Jakarta Persistence specification. Hibernate projects do not consistently release binaries or documentation to SourceForge anymore. For up-to-date information, refer to the Hibernate website: * Hibernate ORM: https://hibernate.org/orm/ * Hibernate Validator: https://hibernate.org/validator/ * Hibernate Search: https://hibernate.org/search/ That website will also be updated with newer projects, such as Hibernate Reactive.

The Lemur Project develops search engines, browser toolbars, text analysis tools, and data resources that support research and development of information retrieval and text mining software, including the Indri search engine in C++, the Galago search engine research framework in Java, the RankLib learning to rank library, ClueWeb09 and ClueWeb12 datasets and the Sifaka data mining application.

OpenSearch is a distributed search and analytics engine based on Apache Lucene. After adding your data to OpenSearch, you can perform full-text searches on it with all of the features you might expect: search by field, search multiple indices, boost fields, rank results by score, sort results by field, and aggregate results. Unsurprisingly, people often use search engines like OpenSearch as the backend for a search application, think Wikipedia or an online store. It offers excellent performance and can scale up and down as the needs of the application grow or shrink. Its distributed design means that you interact with OpenSearch clusters. Each cluster is a collection of one or more nodes, servers that store your data and process search requests. You can run OpenSearch locally on a laptop, its system requirements are minimal, but you can also scale a single cluster to hundreds of powerful machines in a data center.
