Abstract
Recent advances in communication and storage technology make available vast quantities of on-line information. But this information is of limited use unless it can be searched effectively. Huge scale and heterogeneity of data raise a unique combination of architectural issues that must be addressed to support effective search. These issues occasion the use of multi-user distributed search databases with the following capabilities: efficient structured searching of the contents of files having various schema; continuous availability in spite of failures and maintenance; high-throughput incorporation of a continuous stream of updates, especially the arrival new data and removal of obsolete data. We present anarchitecture that embodies solutions to specific technical problems that arise in the provision of these capabilities.
