A user device stores a local application including initial search records and an initial search function. Each initial search record includes an application link that opens an application page and search data that describes the application page. The initial search function is configured to select from the initial search records. The user device executes the local application to request and receive search update data from a remote system. The search update data includes updated search records and an updated search function. The user device updates the initial search records and the initial search function with the updated search records and the updated search function. The user device receives a search query from a requesting application, selects a set of updated search records based on the search query and the updated search function, and provides a response to the requesting application including application links from the set of updated search records.

A method includes generating vertical-specific (VS) records from data sources. Each VS record includes a vertical identifier and a set of VS data fields. The method further comprises generating, for each VS record, an entity partial (EP) record that includes EP data fields populated from the VS data fields. The EP data fields include an entity ID that indicates an entity for the EP record, a source data field that identifies a data source, and an EP searchable data field including data that is descriptive of the entity. The method further comprises generating a search record for each entity ID by combining data from EP records. The data from the EP records is combined based on the source data included in the EP records. Each search record includes a search record searchable data field that includes data from one or more of the EP searchable data fields.
