Methods and systems to build and utilize a search infrastructure are described. The system generates, by a first indexing subsystem, full indexes of data and sends the full indexes to a plurality of query node servers via a distribution system. The system generates, mini-indexes associated with the full indexes and sends the mini-indexes to the plurality of query node servers. The system causes the plurality of query nodes to update indexing information based on the full indexes and the mini-indexes.

Next generation near real-time indexing

Methods and systems to build and utilize a search infrastructure are described. The system generates index information components in real-time based on a database that is time-stamped. The system updates index information at a plurality of query node servers based on the index information components. A query engine receives a search query from a client machine and identifies search results based on the query and the index information. The system communicates the search results, over the network, to the client machine.

The system receives event notifications as the document updates are received and accumulates the index information until published. A query engine receives a search query from a client machine and identifies search results based on the query and the index information.
