Index Server Companion
The Index Server Companion extends the functionality of Microsoft's Index Server so that it is able to index and search content from remote websites hosted on any web server (including Unix/Linux/Apache), [sample search] and also from ODBC databases. As such it can be used as a low cost alternative to Microsoft's Site Server 3.0 Search or the search facilities of SharePoint Portal Server. |

Index Server Companion Features highlights include:
- Enables Index Server (Windows NT 4.0 Server) or Indexing Service (Windows 2000 Server) to allow searching of any web server or ODBC compliant database.
- Integrated web robot extracts content from websites. Includes support for robots.txt files and robots meta tags. Robot can negotiate sites using HTML Frames.
- Optional ability to retrieve URLs containing QueryStrings.
- Ability to retrieve individual URLs from servers.
- Ability to specify crawl depth of web robot.
- Support for crawling websites using ASP/ASP.NET sessions.
- Ability to retrieve binary files from servers, including Adobe Acrobat PDF, Microsoft Office documents and even images.
- Ability to save content from web crawls to any ODBC database (i.e. Access or SQL Server), which can potentially allow you to create a website search facility using SQL (SQL Server full-text catalog searching recommended).
- Automatic uploading of saved content to a FTP site.
- Ability to save content from web crawls into an XML file.
- Support for full or incremental project updates of both web and database content, meaning that Index Server only has to re-index content that has changed.
- Configuration of the Index Server Companion is through the editing of a plain text configuration file.
- Index Server Companion can be run from the command line, and scheduled using the Windows Task Scheduler.
- Flexible output options mean that administrative access to Index Server is not necessarily required.
- Facility for creating a basic table of contents page for the sites that are crawled [sample from this website, sample from Lachesis.biz].
- Facility for creating a site summary page that can be used to optimise sites for search engines, by showing what keywords are used on a site, the tags used by each page etc. The site summary page shows:
- The top 40 most used keywords listed in the keywords meta tags in all of the pages crawled.
- The body of the summary page contains the following from the pages encountered in the web crawl:
- A list of page titles.
- A list of page headings (H1 to H3 inclusive).
- A list of bold (and strong) text.
- A list of external hyperlinks in the site.
- A list of italicised text.
- A selection of relevant paragraph text. Paragraphs are assumed to be relevant if they contain one or more of the 40 most frequently used keywords.
- A list of page description meta tags.
- A list of page keywords.
- A list of page description meta tags hyperlinked back to the URL from which each description was extracted.
- A list of page keywords hyperlinked back to the URL from which it was extracted.
- Fully documented VBScript examples show how to make use of the Index Server Companion in ASP pages.
- Includes sample code showing how to use the Index Server Companion with Index Server/Indexing Service on ASP.NET (C# and VB.NET). Display your search results in DataGrids, Repeaters and other Web Form components.
