Techniques related to accelerated detection of matching patterns are disclosed. In an embodiment, a method may involve, for a single field of a body of records, contiguously storing field values, thereby storing the field values as a concatenation. The method may also involve identifying a match in the concatenation that matches a value pattern specified by a value pattern expression. The value pattern may include a first partial pattern and a second partial pattern. Further, the method may involve determining that the match is contained in a single field value of the body of records. Still further, the method may involve establishing the match as a matching value. The match may be determined to be contained in the single field value based on searching a data structure comprising length information or offset information for a subset of the field values stored as the concatenation.

Accelerated detection of matching patterns

Systems, methods, and other embodiments associated with real-time text indexing are described. One example method includes receiving a document for indexing in a search system that includes a mature index and indexing the received document in a staging index. The staging index may be stored in direct access memory associated with query processing that does not degrade query performance even when postings become fragmented. The staging index and the mature text index are accessed to process queries on the search system. The example method may also include periodically merging the staging index into the mature index based on query feedback.

Real-time text indexing

Systems, methods, and other embodiments associated with text indexing for updateable tokenized text are described. One example method includes receiving revised tokenized text intended to replace existing tokenized text in an indexed document. Token location information corresponding to the revised tokenized text is stored in an allocated free space portion of a text index posting.
