Last I used Sphinx, it is tied to MySQL. Is that still true? If so, then Sphinx could be a deal breaker to some.

- dpcx 9y agoSphinx can connect to MySQL or Postgres, but can also read XML and [TC]SV, among others. Does this do something better? The examples seem to be where the user is providing the data to the indexer, which Sphinx can also do.
- mrweasel 9y agoIt hasn't been tied to MySQL in the last 10 years, so I'm wondering if it ever was. You can connect to Sphinx using a MySQL client, use it as a MySQL storage engine or using MySQL as a data source. But it's not specifically tied to MySQL.
