Google-like search of Mongo database

I am implementing a Mongo database in my Android project. I will have a base of products (like TV's, printers, etc...) and I want to implement a "search by name" feature. But the main problem I'm facing is that I can't find a way to do a search which would give me semi-matches. I could implement it, but I'm afraid that it will slow down my base. I wonder if there are any good "Search engines" that work with Mongo?

Solution

  • One product to look at is elastic search. It has some built in features for doing type to find searches.
