This October I’ve been invited to speak at Lucene Revolution, a conference on open source search to be held in Boston, USA. I’ll be part of the closing panel on October 8th, together with speakers from Lucid Imagination and Exalead. It looks like a very interesting event, with speakers from IBM, Cisco, LinkedIn and the Smithsonian.
As part of the run-up to the conference Stephen Arnold has interviewed me – we discussed the wider picture of open source search, why a strong community is important and why flexibility can be the key to successful integration.
