Paul,
I'm personal very happy with nutch.
Sure, there are some limitation and issues but we was able to fix
them and run several project with somehow customized nutch versions.
I committed some patches but they are not in the sources yet. (e.g.
the port issue is very important for us, beside that we customized
document boosting etc.)
However to use map reduce is straight forward and the plugin system
gives a lot of flexibility.
Nutch rocks.. :-)
... people go and show your love... :-D

Stefan is right, there are no complete open source solutions out
there that
I am aware of. There is an initiative to port Lucene to C, but it
doesn't
have everything you would need to run a complete search engine.
As far as commercial products, it depends on what you are looking
for. If
you need a complete engine to startup some niche search business I
would
look at Munax (www.munax.com). I know the guys that built that
system and
it is top notch. I don't know what they charge for it, but they
have both
corporate clients running it internally and several major search
sites in
Europe running it. We evaluated it to be a baseline demonstration
engine
for us to put our systems on top of and were impressed. I think
the best
part of their tool set is their crawler. It is content aware and
has the
ability to recognize semantics.

Subject: Re: Good Alternatives to Nutch?
NO! :-) There is no serious open source competitor to nutch, but
there are some commercial products.
e.g. google Appliance or gigablast.
In any case I see no problem to have a java based solution.
Java runs on other os e.g. m$ window$ and it is definitely very
fast... to have a c(++) based solution wouldn't improve speed.

Hi,
I am looking for a non-java solution for search
engine. Are there any good non-java alternatives to
Nutch?
Many thanks.
