B2B TECHNOLOGIES PRESENTATION | Search Architecture B2B TECHNOLOGIES PRESENTATION | ARCHITECTURE Search Topology Topology GUI B2B TECHNOLOGIES PRESENTATION | ARCHITECTURE Crawl Component CRAWL AND CONTENT Crawl and Content Processes • Is responsible for crawling content sources. • Invokes connectors or protocol handlers that interact with content sources to retrieve data. • Uses one or more crawl databases to temporarily store information about crawled items and to track crawl history. • Extracts crawled properties and metadata to send to the content processing component B2B TECHNOLOGIES PRESENTATION | Crawl Database CRAWL AND CONTENT Crawl and Content Processes • Contains detailed tracking and historical information about crawled items • Holds information such as the last crawl time, the last crawl ID and the type of update during the last crawl • Can have one or more crawl components associated with it. B2B TECHNOLOGIES PRESENTATION | Content Processing Component CRAWL AND CONTENT Crawl and Content Processes • Lives between the Crawl and Index Components • Transforms crawled items into artifacts that can be included in the search index • Performs linguistics processing • Interacts with the analytics component • Writes information about links and URLs to the link database • Maps crawled properties to managed properties B2B TECHNOLOGIES PRESENTATION | Indexing Component INDEX AND QUERY Index and query processes • Logical representation of an index replica • One index component must be provisioned for each replica • Receives processed items from the content processing component and writes them to the index file • Receives queries from the query processing component and provides a result set in return B2B TECHNOLOGIES PRESENTATION | Query Processing Component INDEX AND QUERY Index and query processes • Lives between the search front end and the index component • Analyzes and processes search queries and results • Performs linguistics processing • Receives queries from the query processing component and provides a result set in return B2B TECHNOLOGIES PRESENTATION | Search Administration ADMINISTRATION Administration • Made up of the Search Administration Component and its Database • The Search Administration Component runs a number of system processes and carries out provisioning • The Search Administration Database stores search configuration data B2B TECHNOLOGIES PRESENTATION | Analytics Processing Component ANALYTICS Analytics Processes • Performs search and usage analytics • The results from the analyses are added to the items in the search index • The results from the usage analytics are stored in the analytics reporting database B2B TECHNOLOGIES PRESENTATION | Link Database ANALYTICS Analytics Processes • Stores information extracted by the content processing component • Stores information about search clicks B2B TECHNOLOGIES PRESENTATION | Analytics Reporting Database ANALYTICS Analytics Processes • Stores the results of usage analytics • Stores statistics information from the analyses B2B TECHNOLOGIES PRESENTATION | Event Store ANALYTICS Analytics Processes • Holds usage events that are captured on the front-end • The events are stored as log files on the application server that hosts the analytics processing component B2B TECHNOLOGIES PRESENTATION | Search Topology Small Farm Topology B2B TECHNOLOGIES PRESENTATION | TOPOLOGY Search Topology Medium Farm Topology B2B TECHNOLOGIES PRESENTATION | TOPOLOGY Search Topology Large Farm Topology B2B TECHNOLOGIES PRESENTATION | TOPOLOGY Content Volume SCALING Scaling Dimensions Content volume scaling is just a matter of making sure you stay within the items limits that Microsoft has specified • • 10 million items per index partition 20 million items per query database B2B TECHNOLOGIES PRESENTATION | Query Load SEARCH SCALING Scaling Dimensions Query Processing Component Considerations • CPU Load • • Queries per second Query transformations • Network Load • • Number of index partitions Size of queries and results B2B TECHNOLOGIES PRESENTATION | Crawl Load SEARCH SCALING Scaling Dimensions Index Component Considerations • CPU Load • • Queries per second Item Count • Index Disk IOPS Crawl Component Considerations • CPU Load • Document per second • Link Discovery • Crawl Management • Network Load • Disk Load B2B TECHNOLOGIES PRESENTATION | Crawl Load Continued Scaling Dimensions Content Processing Component • CPU Load • • • Documents per second Document size and complexity Feature extraction • • Documents per second Document Size • Network Load B2B TECHNOLOGIES PRESENTATION | SEARCH SCALING Analytics Load Scaling Dimensions Analytics Processing Component • CPU Load • • Number of items Site activity • Same as CPU load • Network Load B2B TECHNOLOGIES PRESENTATION | SEARCH SCALING Search Resources B2B TECHNOLOGIES PRESENTATION | RESOURCES Making Topology Changes TOPOLOGY MODIFICATIONS Changing Topology Steps to make topology changes • Turn on the search service on all servers that will house search components • Clone the existing search topology • Add or delete search components • Promote the cloned topology to active B2B TECHNOLOGIES PRESENTATION | Demo DEMO Search Demonstration B2B TECHNOLOGIES PRESENTATION | SharePint 28 |SharePoint Saturday Atlanta 29 |SharePoint Saturday Atlanta 30 |SharePoint Saturday Atlanta 31 |SharePoint Saturday Atlanta Session @SPS_ATL Prizes 1 4 $25 gift cards 2 4 $25 gift cards 3 4 $25 gift cards 4 4 $25 gift cards 5 4 $25 gift cards #SPSATL speaker sponsor Tyler Bithell Fill out surveys for big prizes SCAN QR CODES Visit my blog at http://sharepointv15.wordpress. com Follow me on twitter @B2B_Tech_TB Mention me on Twitter using the hashtag #SPSATL Scan the QR code to fill out a survey and potentially win prizes Join us for SharePint 34 |SharePoint Saturday Atlanta
