Just use Postgres fulltext Search, its good enough http://rachbelaid.com/postgres-full-text-search-is-good-enou...

for postgres, i highly recommend the rum index over the core fts. rum is written by postgrespro, who also wrote core fts and json indexing in pg. https://github.com/postgrespro/rum rum handles +20mil pdf pages, interactively.

Sounds very interesting. Never heard of rum, thank you for suggesting it.

“Relevant search” by Doug Turnbull and John Berryman, published by Manning, is THE best book to get started with tuning search engines. I’be been a search engineer for >10 years and this is always the first book I recommend. https://www.manning.com/books/relevant-search
