punch_card_don has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:
Maudlin Monks,
Seems every 3 or 4 years comes time to review the client's search engine to bring it up to date. Long ago we ran the old Perlfect search, which was pretty good. Then we moved to a home-grown engine. Time to update it again..... This is a mid-sized commercial site. A few hundred html / shtml pages; a few thousand pdf's; a smattering of Word and Excel documents. Really low traffic - we're talking tens of searches a day, not thousands. So were looking for the best version of modern functionalities - especially good relevancy ordering. And, of course, in Perl. Something off-the-shelf-and-customizable would be an ideal way to avoid joing the Google-Search crowd. Is there anything new under the sun? Thanks. Time flies like an arrow. Fruit flies like a banana.
