Full text search in MySQL or MariaDB using Sphinx

Sphinxsearch is an open source full-text search engine.  It can index data directly from your MySQL database and service queries natively, via Sphinx MySQL network protocol and via MySQL server with a pluggable storage engine (SphinxSE).  In this talk we will demonstrate how to index data query it using a MySQL client and how to query it from inside your database server using the SphinxSE.

If you are looking to add full-text search functionality to your database this will show you a path to achieve it.
