Cartoon: Hadoop-based search

Hadoop is a perfect platform for search: it is big and strong, and attentive to details. However, don't just take my word for it. Here is the "follow the money" hint: Elastic Search announced $70 Million series C financing, with its products of ElasticSearch, Logstash, and Kibana.

Our Hadoop-based legal search, FreeEed, is also witnessing increased adoption, by law firms looking for eDiscovery alternatives, and by IT departments and government agencies who "search for open source legal search" :)
