Abstract

Methods for faceted searching within clustered in-memory databases are disclosed. Faceted searching may be used to generate search suggestions. The faceted search engine may be able to use non-literal key algorithms for a partial prefix fuzzy matching and may include a feature disambiguation module. The disclosed search engine may be capable of processing large amounts of unstructured data in real time to generate search suggestions.
