Open Search Server (OSS) is a search engine software developed under the GPL v3 open source licence.
Built using open source software technologies, Open Search Server is a stable, high-performance search engine and a suite of full text search algorithms.
Features
Multi-languages indexing. Documents can be indexed in sixteen languages – Chinese, Danish, Dutch, English, Finnish, French, German, Hungarian, Italian, Norwegian, Portuguese, Romanian, Russian, Spanish, Swedish, Turkish.
Multi-lingual analysers slice sentences into words, then run lemmatisation algorithms on words based on the document’s language (singular/plural, gender, conjugated verbs, etc.)
The crawlers go through web sites and file systems to rapidly and easily build your index.
Numerous document formats are supported, such as XML, HTML/XHTML, Adobe™ PDF, Microsoft™ Word™, PowerPoint™, OpenOffice™, etc.
The web interface is built around the power offered by the Zkoss framework. It runs with the main Ajax browsers. This RIA-type interface is as comfortable to use as that of a heavy client.
Easy configuration through a single XML file, which includes fields definition and the indexation options.
Quick integration thanks to an XML interface via HTTP queries (XML over HTTP).
