The power of polyglot searching

02 Jun 2017 videos

In the previous years we have got the Polyglot Persistence. This is a fancy term which means that when storing data, it is best to use multiple data storage technologies, chosen based upon the way data is being used by. If we have multiple persistence, then sometimes we need polyglot operations. One of the most popular use case in Big Data is searching. Almost all websites provide a search function to their users, to be able to find what they are looking for. Usually it is an Apache Lucene based solution, like Elasticsearch or Solr. I will show you how to enrich this kind of searching with the power of graph based searches, and implement a polyglot search functionality, where the results are based on the cooperation of a search engine and a graph based real time recommendation.

Mining and Searching text with Graph Databases

A great part of the world’s knowledge is stored using text in natural language, but using it in an effective way is still a major challenge. Natural Language Processing (NLP) techniques provide the basis for harnessing this huge amount of data and converting it into a useful source of knowledge for further processing. It uses computer science, artificial intelligence and formal linguistics concepts to analyze natural language, aiming at deriving meaningful and useful information from text.
