Sphinx is a full-text search engine, distributed under GPL version
|
|
2. Commercial license is also available for embedded use.
|
|
|
|
Generally, it's a standalone search engine, meant to provide fast,
|
|
size-efficient and relevant fulltext search functions to other
|
|
applications. Sphinx was specially designed to integrate well with SQL
|
|
databases and scripting languages. Currently built-in data sources
|
|
support fetching data either via direct connection to MySQL, or from
|
|
an XML pipe.
|
|
|
|
As for the name, Sphinx is an acronym which is officially decoded as
|
|
SQL Phrase Index.
