YaCy has alarge number of document parsers included.
p2p-Based Global Search Engine |
-YaCy has an index-sharing p2p-based algorithm which creates a global distributed search engine.
-This spawns a world-wide global search index.
+
+ When a web search in you local peer is done, it searches not only the own database, but also +databases of other YaCy peers. Only those peers are searched that should have the specific index. - |
Caching HTTP and transparent HTTPS Proxy with page indexing |
-With optional pre-fetching. HTTP 1.1 with GET/HEAD/POST/CONNECT is supported. This is sufficient for nearly all public web pages.
-HTTP headers are transparently forwarded. HTTPS connections through target port 443 are transparently forwarded, non-443 connections are suppressed to enhance security. Both (HTTP and HTTPS) proxies share the same proxy port, which is by default port 8080.
-The proxy 'scrapes' the content that it passes and creates an index that can be shared between every YACY Proxy daemons.
-You can use the indexing feature for intranet indexing:
-you instantly have a search service at hand to index all intranet-served web pages.
-You don't need to set up a separated search service. And the used PLASMA
-indexing is not a naive quick-hack but an properly engineered and extremely fast algorithm;
-it is capable of indexing a nearly unlimited number of pages, without slowing down the search process.
+
+ The workflow inside YaCy. There is no user action required for steering of the workflow, +but the user interface offers a large number of monitoring pages that show status information about the queues and stacks. - |
Privacy | -YaCy protects your privacy. Please see the -privacy secion in the documentation.; - |
Security | -YaCy can block unwanted access by setting IP filters and http passwords. -You can also enhance security by inspecting the source code, which is completely included. -Check the code and re-build your own YaCy application. - |
Web/HTTP server | -The built-in HTTP server is the interface to the local and global search service; -the server may not only be used to administrate your peer, but also to serve as an intranet/internet web server. - |
Ideal Internet Cafe Proxy Solution | -Every Internet Cafe needs a caching proxy instead only a NAT to route the cafe's client traffic from the internet to maximize bandwidth. -This can only be done using a caching proxy. This is naturally provided by YaCy. Future versions may also include -billing support functions. - |
Terminal-Based | -YaCy does not need to have a window-based environment and can run on a screen-less router; -it has a user interface based on web pages using its own http server. - - |
Open-Source | -This is a simple necessity for an application that implements a server. -Don't use any other server software that does not come with the source code. -Volunteers to extent YaCy are welcome! -If you think you have a great idea how to extend/enhance/fix YaCy, -please let me know. - - |
Easy Installation | -You just need to decompress the release containter with your favourite decompressor -(zip, rar, sit, tar etc. will do) and double-click the application wrapper -for your OS. No restart necessary. -Just double-click the application wrapper. - - |
