A method of searching shared files stored on a shared storage includes providing a search functionality in the shared storage having a set of search indexes to perform a search based on a search term; providing an event stream of update events associated with the shared files in the shared storage; processing the event stream to generate a processed event stream; and responding to update events in the processed event stream by indexing files referenced in the update events in the processed event stream where the indexing is performed to maintain a predetermined level of quality of service at the shared storage.

A method of searching shared files stored on a general purpose shared storage includes receiving a search term in a native search interface of an operating system on a computing device; and performing, on the computing device, a search based on the search term including accessing a search functionality of the general purpose shared storage, wherein the search functionality uses indexes of the shared files stored on the shared storage and updates the indexes of the shared files in response to update events generated from the shared files. In one embodiment, the method performs a federated search based on the search term.
