REWRITING CORPUS CONTENT IN A SEARCH INDEX AND PROCESSING SEARCH QUERIES USING THE REWRITTEN SEARCH INDEX

Abstract:

A method, a computing system, and a computer program product are provided for processing search queries. A computing device executing a content management system receives a content rewriting rule. A content item including the content rewriting rule is stored. The stored content rewriting rule is associated with a first search index, which includes indexed content of a corpus having unstructured textual content. The content of the corpus is rewritten into a second search index of an index overlay structure by applying the content rewriting rule to the content of the corpus. The second search index is used for searching the content of the corpus for content satisfying a received search query.
