Abstract
Embodiments provide indexing and searching features including the use of a configurable schema as part of providing partial update support of one or more aspects of an electronic document or documents, but are not so limited. In an embodiment, a system is configured to provide search services including partial update functionality based in part on use of a configurable schema to manage partial document updates and/or query processing operations. A method of one embodiment operates to use a configurable schema to define a number of merge sets that group various document attributes based in part on data source, update, and/or usage parameters to provide an efficient partial update mechanism. Other embodiments are included.
