Ask HN: Search engine for a small number of sites?
Is there an open source search engine that I could use to index a small number of websites (think few thousands) and have the results be of quality similar to that on Yandex/Google?
- jasonwcfan 3y agoNot sure about a page rank like algorithm for search but there's a lot of tools now to build an index over text with vector embeddings. Weaviate for example offers hybrid indexes with configurable weights for keyword vs semantic search. https://weaviate.io/developers/weaviate/search/hybrid https://weaviate.io/developers/weaviate/search/hybrid This might be similar to what you're looking for?
