Cloudant Search is Open Source now!
Hi list,
I am happy to announce that Cloudant open sourced the Search Stack
that is powering the Cloudant Search features. [1]
It consists of two repositories, Dreyfus, written in Erlang and
Clouseau as a Scalang project that uses Lucene.
Dreyfus is compatible with the new clustering features of CouchDB and
makes use of them. It establishes links between the VMs / nodes to get
the results from the shards before merging them as the final result
which is returned to the user. For details how it works under the hood
see this document [4]
Are the two projects something the CouchDB community would be
interested in as part of the ASF, maybe as optional addon?
Best,
Robert :)

Great news!
Since this project have Java/Scala bits in dependencies, I think
having it as optional disables by default is good idea.

This is outstanding new! I’m all for getting Search
into ASF-land :)
I agree that it is likely that we don’t want to add a JVM dependency for default installs, but we can work out the details.
Thank you!
Best
Jan
