lightweight search engine for asp.net

Question

I'm looking to develop a CMS project based on UMBRACO but I also need to index the documents created and to offer search functionality therefore I would like to know if you have any suggestion for a lightweight search engine available in .net technology. The main requirement is to be simple and efficient (nothing complex like solr or sphinx ).

Answer 1

Have a look at Lucene.net.

Answer 3

Take a look at System.Data.Sqlite, an ADO.Net wrapper around Sqlite. It's fully managed, simple to deploy (one dll), and includes the Sqlite FT3 search built-in, so you can use SQL to do the search.

Answer 4

If you only need to search documents/nodes created in umbraco you can use xsltsearch perhaps? It's very easy to deploy.
