Group, I've worked on K2 to IDOL or K2 to K2 7 (IDOL emulation) and can say that although there have been numerous iterations of the K2 API, the reason for the...
Emory: I totally agreed on what you said on IDOL and Verity. By using K2 API, our search applications stay the same for the most part. As I mentioned before,...
Emory raises a great point - in fact, more than a year ago we conferenced him with a customer we were working with at the time and he said about the same...
I know FAST Search says they support the opensearch api (http://www.opensearch.org). Does anyone know of a Verity K2 and/or IDOL connector? We have a customer...
... I just wanted to point out that as of version 7.3, Autonomy IDOL has a very powerful new addition called "LUA" tasks. It's a scripting language embedded...
Hi Miles, We're working on an OpenSearch connector right now. With SearchServer 2008 using OpenSearch as the standard, we think it should be a good connector...
What "standard" are they using? 1.1 is still officially in draft and hasn't been updated in years. Seriously, I thought OpenSearch was dead. And I wasn't...
The similar feature exists in IDOL 7.2 as well, but it doesn't work well under load. We configured a task to generate a summary (in replace of VDKSummary)...
Miles: IDX and BIF file structure does has a lot of similarities, the key difference is that BIF is used at high level to facilitate the indexing process,...
Nominally on topic... an interesting comparison of engines... IDX files are much closer to FAST ESP FixML files, in that they include the textual content of...
... It's really that FAST Search supports OpenSearch API? I'm working with FAST ESP 5.1 and I'm planning to build an Apache Module to wrap FAST HTTP interface...
Hi, This is my first post to the list! I'm worknig with FAST ESP 5.1.4 right now, but I have worked with FAST Datasearch 4.0 and 4.1 since 2005. Now, my...
Hi Mark, Regarding Lucene - Lucene is a toolkit and there is no Lucene file input per se. Solr, an application that exposes Lucene as a web service naturally...
Hello and welcome to the group! I'm a bit confused by your question, I think it's just a question of vocabulary. Scenarios: 1: FAST can run on a single...
Yes. But I was saying that I don't think there is a "standard" XML schema/DTD that folks use to import meta data into those systems. I've seen folks use title...
Actually, the field names in IDX can be anything. There are some standard ones: DREREFERENCE, DRETITLE, DRECONTENT, etc. but they don't need to be there and...
Antonio, To answer your question about Fast supporting the OpenSearch API, documentation for their Unity (Federator) product says that they have some pre-built...
Hello, Thank you and sorry for my Tarzan-like english :-( ... index, in what FAST would call an "instance". ... not share ... federated ... Yes, number 3 is my...
OK. Generally, two separate clusters (two separate FAST "instances") are not going to cooperate with each other, at least not out of the box. There are a few...
Yup. Very similar for BIF and FixML. K2 BIF files will typically have: VdkVgwKey, doc_fn, doc_of, doc_sz, URL, title, VdkSummary, etc. And then any other...
I know you said Verity and FAST are the same, and sounds like they are on the import fields and flexibility. But then you talked about adding fields on the...
Hi Sam, In IDOL's config file, I thought you do call out some specific fields by name.... but you're saying that's not required for schema reasons. Perhaps ...
Again, thanks to all for your good info! ... I didn't hear about FAST Unity! But today Barry ( at http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/search_dev/message/418 )...
TIA - I know a number of FAST customers who make use of multiple clusters on a single install but not sure if they are on this list - FAST Support or...
Hello, Perhaps IDOL (no experience with it) may do something like Ultraseek (lots of experience with it), where... Nothing needs to change to: 1) Store...
