Thanks in no small part to Lucene, quality keyword search is easily
obtainable. Likewise, tools like Apache Hadoop and its ecosystem have
made it easier to store and process large quantities of data.

In this talk, we'll look at the opportunities the Lucene ecosystem provides to offer better search, discovery and analytics capabilities to developers in order to better enable users.
