Miracle Open World 2010 Lucene Presentation

The conference is over and it was a great success. I meet a lot of new people and had lots of technical discussions about .Net, graph databases, freetext search, SQL Server, Oracle Service Bus, debugging with WinDbg and extensions.

The slides and demo code for my Lucene session is available here:

My session “Making freetext search with Lucene.Net work for you” abstract:

Lucene is an open source full-featured text search engine library, making searching in large amounts of text lightning fast. Lucene are in use by many large sites like Wikipedia, LinkedIn, MySpace etc.

It is easy to get started with Lucene, but there are many pitfalls… In this session you will learn about the do’s and don’t’s for indexing and searching, tools, scaling, new features in version 2.9 and some of the more advanced features.

This presentation will use the Microsoft .Net implementation of Lucene named Lucene.Net, but the content of this presentation applies for ported versions of Lucene.


 Anders Lybecker is an chief architect at Avior A/S, a consultancy firm in Copenhagen, Denmark. He holds a degree in software engineering specializing in software development. His primary expertise are the Microsoft .Net framework and SQL Server which he has been working with since the start of this century! He enjoys discussing technical topics, teaching and speaking at conferences.

  2. Thanks :-)

    I’m enthusiastic about freetext search and especially Lucene. Feel free to write to me if you want to know more…

    Unfortunately I was misinformed about the session length – I had more content that showed some of the neat features.
