dtSearch announces version 2021.01 product line release and version 2021.02 beta

Full-text search engine provider dtSearch has announced new versions of its enterprise and developer text retrieval product line that can instantly search for terabytes of data online and off, spanning multiple folders and emails with attachments. Key features of the product line include multithreaded searching, document filters, faceted search, and more. The updates will increase search capabilities for users across all industries.

According to dtSearch, the beta has a preview multithreaded indexer to greatly increase indexing speed on multicore 64-bit Windows systems. The beta also adds Hancom Office HWPX support to the many data types covered by dtSearch's proprietary document filters. In addition, the dtSearch Engine for macOS release candidate adds support for Apple silicon M1/ARM; the dtSearch Engine developer SDKs for macOS, Linux and Windows share cross-platform .NET 5 / .NET Core, C++ and Java APIs for use in developing both on-prem and online applications, including on Azure and AWS.

With the new updates, the dtSearch enterprise and developer products can index a terabyte of text encompassing multiple folders, emails with nested attachments, online data and other databases in a single index. The products can create and search any number of indexes. Index updates do not prevent continued searching. The multithreaded 64-bit indexer speed boost applies both to new index builds and to index updates. (The multithreaded indexer does not involve any change to the index format.)

In addition, indexed search covering full-text and metadata is typically instantaneous, even in a concurrent search environment encompassing terabytes of mixed online and offline data. For online use, dtSearch products have no limits on the number of concurrent search threads. The new multithreaded indexer does not affect searching.

dtSearch's proprietary document filters support Microsoft Office files, OpenOffice files, PDFs, compression formats, emails along with nested attachments, web-ready data, and more. For supported data types, the document filters further support browser display with highlighted hits. The beta also expands Hancom (a popular Korean Office application) support to cover the HWPX document format.

The dtSearch product line has more than 25 full-text and metadata hit-highlighted search options, with integrated relevancy ranking across multiple data repositories. Forensics-oriented options include identifying credit card numbers in data and hash value generation and search. For international languages, dtSearch products support Unicode, with support for right-to-left languages, and special Chinese/Japanese/Korean character options (covering text in the HWPX format as well as in other supported formats).
