Six Ways Improves Search in SharePoint
“�The�most�exciting�possibility�is�to�build�a�hybrid�system�using�SharePoint�and�Lucidworks�Fusion.�This�gives�you�SharePoint�for�document�storing,�sharing�and�collaboration�features�for�teams—everything�that�supports�the�flow�of�work—and,�Fusion�with�its�AI-powered�search,�which�lets�you�easily�tune�relevance�and�create�a�self-learning�system�based�on�users’�history�and�behavior.”�TOMASZ�SOBCZAK,�SHAREPOINT�AND�SEARCH�EXPERT,�FINDWISE
If�you�had�unlimited�time�and�staff,�you�could�spend�all�day�turning�every�knob�and�tuning�every�config�file�to�get�the�best�possible�results�from�SharePoint’s�native�search.�But�you�don’t�have�unlimited�resources.�You�need�a�system�that�knows�how�to�turn�its�own�knobs.�What�you�want�is�a�self-tuning�search�engine�with�advanced�machine�learning�that�automatically�improves�results�with�every�use.
Searchers�don’t�always�describe�things�in�the�same�terms�that�your�SharePoint�does.�This�typically�leads�to�searches�with�bad�or�zero�results.�Head-n-Tail�Analysis�uses�machine�learning�based�on�misspellings,�word�order,�synonyms,�and�other�types�of�common�mismatches�to�automatically�fix�search�keywords�in�real�time.
The�quest�to�personalize�search�in SharePoint tends to create a�vast�sea�of�per-department�instances.�This�fragmentation�hampers�personalization�and�contextual�search�based�on�all�of�a�company’s�individual�users.�Fusion�understands�user�intent�and�search�patterns�in�the�aggregate�and�personalizes�SharePoint�search�results�using�many�more�criteria�than�just�business�unit�or�department.

Head-n-Tail Analysis
SharePoint�natively�understands�Microsoft�files�and�PDFs�but�struggles�to�provide�relevant�results�for�other�file�types.�Fusion�augments�SharePoint’s�native�search�capabilities�with�an�understanding�of�other�enterprise�data�in�various�formats.�This�combination�provides�a�single-pane�view�for�data�access�across�the�enterprise.
Fusion�helps�scale�search�in�SharePoint�by�distributing�data�across servers with a resource pool�separate�from�SharePoint�itself.�Fusion�does�not�rely�on�databases�for�content�status�and�administration.�Instead,�it�automatically�splits�the�data�among�nodes,�self-balances,and�tunes�itself.�Fusion�ships�with�linear�scalability,�high�availability�and�disaster�recovery.
What�are�people�looking�for?�Are�they�finding�it?�Are�there�patterns�in�user�search�behavior�that�you�should�be�aware�of?�Fusion�helps�visualize�usage�patterns�for�insights�into�user�behavior.�Fusion�finds�and�reveals�what�users�are�doing,�where�they�are�having�trouble,�and�what�they�care�about�as�they�try�to�access�information�to�do�their�jobs.
