The Inktomi Search Engine

Eric Brewer, University of California, Berkeley

This talk will describe the technology behind the Inktomi Web search engine. The Inktomi technology exploits parallel computing technology to build a high-speed, scalable Web server using commodity workstations. The prototype technology was developed as part of the Network of Workstations (NOW) project at the University of California at Berkeley and has also been used to build a new commercial search engine, HotBot. With 54 million documents, HotBot is the most complete Web index online.
