Full text search options for MongoDB setup

Question

We are planning to store millions of documents in MongoDB and full text search is very much required. I read Elasticsearch and Solr are the best available solutions for full

Answer 1

Currently, in MongoDB 2.4.6, there now IS a full-text search in MongoDB and it is more feature rich, then in previous versions. On http://docs.mongodb.org/manual/core/text-search/ are described the capabilities of the new functionality.

Worth mentioning:

• tokenizes and stems the search term(s) during both the index creation and the text command execution. assigns a score to each document that
• contains the search term in the indexed fields. The score determines the relevance of a document to a given search query.

However, in this answer (from September 2013) https://stackoverflow.com/a/18631775/1920149 you can see, that mongo still warns from using this functionality in production. This functionality is still in beta stage.
