Acquia Search Features
Acquia Search
You spend countless hours creating high quality content for your site and hope that visitors view your site as a valuable information resource. However, the static navigation menu defined by your admin when the site was originally created has become outdated. The result - visitors cannot find what they are looking for on your site and abandon the effort, seeking better options elsewhere.
A high quality search experience is as critical to your site's perceived value as the site design and the content itself. Acquia Search is a plug-and-play service available in the Acquia Network that delivers dynamic search navigation tools to your visitors in familiar, easy to use components on your website.
Based on the powerful Lucene and Solr technologies from the Apache project, Acquia Search creates a rich index of your site's content to facilitate search-based navigation. When visitors search your site, Acquia Search presents them with dynamically-created filters so they can drill into results based on date, relevancy, author, tags, content type, or other attributes.
Faceted search - enable your visitors to find information faster by clicking search filters that refine the search results
Results sorting - enable your visitors to sort their search results by date, type, author
Results weighting - improve the relevance of search results by weighting certain results higher than others by using fine-grained controls
Content recommendations - suggest additional related content alongside of search results and increase visitor time on your site
Faster performance - improve site response times and lower abandon rates by offering a faster search experience than Drupal's built-in search
Why Acquia Search over Apache Solr?
Apache Lucene and Apache Solr can be complex to get running and to maintain. Acquia solves the complexity problem by offering Solr search as a service in the Acquia Network.
