Search Technology Meetup IV

In the fourth edition of our Search Technology Meetup Hamburg we were able to welcome Alexander Reelsen (Elastic) and Uwe Schindler (Lucene Committer). This time we met at Xing’s fabulous Hamburg headquarter.

Uwe Schindler (SD Data Solutions) shared some deep insights in Apache Lucene and the innovation in Lucene 4 that lead to Lucene 5. We learned about bugs, dying field caches and roaring bitsets. A great in-depth talk!
