Abstract
This talk provides an insight into the challenges involved in providing near real-time news search to Bloomberg customers.
Our News team is in the process of migrating to using Solr/Lucene as its search and alerting backend. This talk starts with a picture of what’s involved in building such a backend, then delves into what makes up a search engine, and then discusses the challenges of scaling up for low-latency and high-load.
