+==========================
+Search Plugin Installation
+==========================
+
+.. versionadded:: 3.0
+
+.. highlight:: ini
+
+CouchDB can build and query full-text search indexes using an external Java
+service that embeds `Apache Lucene <http://lucene.apache.org>`_. Typically, this
+service is installed on the same host as CouchDB and communicates with it over
+the loopback network.
+
+The search plugin is runtime-compatible with Java JDKs 6, 7 and 8. Building a
+release from source requires JDK 6.
+
+Installation of Binary Packages
+===============================
+
+IBM maintains binary packages of the search service on `GitHub`_ that bundle all
+the necessary dependencies. The files in each release should be unpacked into a
+directory on the Java classpath. The service expects to find a couple of
+configuration files conventionally called ``clouseau.ini`` and
+``log4j.properties`` with the following content:
+
+**clouseau.ini**::
+
+    [clouseau]
+
+    ; the name of the Erlang node created by the service, leave this unchanged
+    name=clouseau@127.0.0.1
+
+    ; set this to the same distributed Erlang cookie used by the CouchDB nodes
+    cookie=monster
+
+    ; the path where you would like to store the search index files
+    dir=/path/to/index/storage
+
+    ; the number of search indexes that can be open simultaneously
+    max_indexes_open=500
+
+**log4j.properties**::
+
+    log4j.rootLogger=debug, CONSOLE
+    log4j.appender.CONSOLE=org.apache.log4j.ConsoleAppender
+    log4j.appender.CONSOLE.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout
+    log4j.appender.CONSOLE.layout.ConversionPattern=%d{ISO8601} %c [%p] %m%n
+
+Once these files are in place the service can be started with an invocation like
+the following::
+
+    java -server \
+         -Xmx2G \
+         -Dsun.net.inetaddr.ttl=30 \
+         -Dsun.net.inetaddr.negative.ttl=30 \
+         -Dlog4j.configuration=file:/path/to/log4j.properties \
+         -XX:OnOutOfMemoryError=\"kill -9 %p\" \
+         -XX:+UseConcMarkSweepGC \
+         -XX:+CMSParallelRemarkEnabled \
+         com.cloudant.clouseau.Main \
+         /path/to/clouseau.ini
+
+Chef
+====
+
+The CouchDB `cookbook`_ can build the search plugin from source and install it
+on a server alongside CouchDB.
+
+Kubernetes
+==========
+
+Users running CouchDB on Kubernetes via the `Helm chart`_ can add the search
+service to each CouchDB Pod by setting ``enableSearch: true`` in the chart
+values.
+
+Additional Details
+==================
+
+The :ref:`Search User Guide <ddoc/search>` provides detailed information on
+creating and querying full-text indexes using this plugin.
+
+The source code for the plugin and additional configuration documentation is
+available on GitHub at https://github.com/cloudant-labs/clouseau.
