How to search a hybrid ASP.NET Intranet site?


How would you implement a search facility within an ASP.NET hybrid application? I'm really tempted to start rebuilding our Intranet application using ASP.NET MVC & Web Forms (mainly MVC though).

I know how to search the dynamic content from a database, but I'm struggling with the static content in the Views. Surely this should be an easy task with routing and a sitemap.


Solution

  • Have a look at Lucene

    Once setup correctly you can crawl all your static url's and use it to create a file based index that can be searched on keywords. It is possible to generate ranked results.
