Software solutions today are increasingly reliant on search as a key interface for their users. While the open-source project for Lucene provides a basic set of features that satisfy the simplest needs, user expectations have grown well beyond basic search functionality: today users demand advanced navigation, contextual results, actionable analytics, flexible visualization, guaranteed accuracy, dynamic rendering, and powerful interfaces no matter their point of interaction.

If your solution needs more than Lucene, you should be looking at MarkLogic Server. If your solution needs to scale to billions of documents with complete accuracy, across commodity hardware, you should be looking at MarkLogic Server.

This paper will describe the criteria for a solid and scalable embeddable search solution and describe how MarkLogic provides the best platform for meeting the search demands of your users.
