Abstract
The present disclosure provides a system and methods for intelligently optimizing search system resource usage and performance using multiple data store technologies. A search query optimization system may utilize multiple query processors, such as a general search engine and one or more specialized data stores, to efficiently and intelligently manage and route queries. The search query optimization system may be configured to evaluate the performance of the various query processors for various types of queries, and may use this information to intelligently route search queries to the query processors best suited to service them.
