Abstract

Full-text search encompasses techniques for searching text-based data and documents. This is an increasingly important function of modern databases. SQL Server has had full-text search capability built into it since SQL Server 7.0. SQL Server 2008 integrated full-text search (iFTS) represents a significant improvement in full-text search functionality, a new level of full-text search integration into the database engine over prior releases. In this chapter, we’ll discuss full-text search theory and then give a high-level overview of SQL Server 2008 iFTS functionality and architecture.
