A method for searching for information in a relational database includes: identifying a subset of attributes from attributes for each record in the relational database, the subset of attributes including a plurality of search attributes and a plurality of search summary attributes; extracting the subset of identified attributes from each record; creating in a cloud-based non-relational database platform an index instance corresponding to each record in the relational database, wherein each index instance in the cloud-based non-relational database includes the subset of identified attributes indexed to a corresponding record in the relational database; and in response to receiving a search request that includes one or more search attributes, searching the index instances in the cloud-based non-relational database for corresponding records in the relational database; and providing search results that include information from corresponding records in the relational database, wherein the information is associated with the plurality of search summary attributes.
