The Lucene PMC is pleased to announce the release of Apache Lucene 9.1.0.

Apache Lucene is a high-performance, full-featured search engine
library written entirely in Java. It is a technology suitable for
nearly any application that requires structured search, full-text
search, faceting, nearest-neighbor search across high-dimensionality
vectors, spell correction or query suggestions.

This release contains numerous bug fixes, optimizations, and
improvements, some of which are highlighted below. The release is
available for immediate download at:
  https://lucene.apache.org/core/downloads.html

Lucene 9.1.0 Release Highlights

New features

 - Lucene JARs are now proper Java modules, with module descriptors
and dependency information
 - Support for filtering in nearest-neighbor vector search
 - Support for intervals queries in the standard query syntax
 - A new token filter SpanishPluralStemFilter for precise stemming of
Spanish plurals

Optimizations

 - Up to 30% improvement in index throughput for high-dimensional vectors
 - Up to 10% faster nearest neighbor searches on high-dimensional vectors
 - Faster execution of "count" searches across different query types
 - Faster counting for taxonomy facets
 - Several other search speed-ups, including improvements to
PointRangeQuery, MultiRangeQuery, and CoveringRangeQuery

Other

 - The test framework is now a module, so all classes have been moved
from to org.apache.lucene.tests.* to avoid package name conflicts
 - Lucene now faithfully implements the HNSW algorithm for nearest
neighbor search by supporting multiple graph layers

… plus a number of helpful bug fixes!
