In almost every enterprise, new data is constantly being created every minute, yet most of the time the old data is not being removed or replaced. This results in terabytes of data for large, information-intensive environments.

This paper will discuss scaling strategies for building flexible, high performance and high availability solutions for mission-critical search applications that will be able to handle the sheer amount of data while securely crawling and indexing all data repositories.
