Guided Search ITL development process
The Guided Search ITL uses an instance configuration to process, tag, and
locate data.
Creating an instance configuration is an iterative
process. Oracle recommends that you first create a very simple instance
configuration to test your data. After the simple configuration is working as
you expect, you can make additional modifications, view your results, and make
changes as necessary. Also, it is often useful to work on a subset of your
data, for quicker turnaround of data processing, while you are developing your
instance configuration.
Guided Search ITL development consists of the following steps:
Use Developer Studio to create an instance configuration.
This defines how your data should be indexed and displayed. It
includes Content Acquisition System components, such as a JDBC Adapter.
Use a Deployment Template application to do the following:
Run Forge, referencing the instance configuration, to process
your source data into tagged Guided Search records.
Run Dgidx on the Forge output to create MDEX Engine indices
from the tagged Guided Search records.
Run Dgraph to start a MDEX Engine and point it at the indices
created by Dgidx.
View the results and repeat these steps to make changes as
necessary.
