YACY

 p2p-based distributed Web Search Engine


Für eine deutsche Dokumentation sehen sie bitte hier


  The YACY project is a new approach to build a P2P-based Web indexing network.

  • Crawl your own pages or start distributed crawling
  • Search your own or the global index

  • Built-in caching http proxy, but usage of the proxy is not a requisite
  • Indexing benefits from the proxy cache; private information is not stored or indexed

  • Filter unwanted content like ad- or spyware; share your web-blacklist with other peers
  • Extension to DNS: use your peer name as domain name!

  • Easy to install! No additional database required!

  • No central server!
  • GPL'ed, freeware

Start today to contribute to the global index with our own YACY peer!
