Geek info: Fulltext search with Sphinx on MySQL

On the actual web monday in Frankfurt a.M. in Germany I speak about Sphinx – a search engine for MySQL databases. The server gives you a full text search engine which is much faster than the internal MATCH AGAINST statement of MySQL itself.

This presentation was updated quite a lot during the last 12 months and I have talked about sphinx on various conferences all over the world.

To provide with a few short snippets of configuration of this Open Source tool, I decided to release this PDF file to the public for free. I hope it will help anyone to find a quick start with Sphinx.

You can download the PDF examples here: MySQL Search With Sphinx

and the software itself from the coders here: SphinxSearch

at the time of this blog post, the final release of the server is near – keep up the good work, folks!

    I just found my presentation in english on the german Linux Magazine server:

    http://streaming.linux-magazin.de/archiv_froscon08.htm

    They recorded the FrOScon presentation I gave about Mnogo and Sphinx. Both tools are great for web-search and you might want to watch either part – first 20 minutes is Mnogo, the rest I did a Sphinx demo.
