AD-HOC QUERIES INTEGRATING USAGE ANALYTICS WITH SEARCH RESULTS

摘要

Search results returned by ad hoc queries integrate search results with usage analytics calculated from collected usage information for a system, such as a content management system. In response to receiving a query, the query is submitted to the system to obtain search results. Information from the usage analytics is integrated with the obtained search results. A search index of the system may include all/portion of the usage analytics such that the obtained results from the system may already be integrated with the usage analytics. The system is configurable such that users of the system may configure the usage events that are used to collect the usage information. The users may also configure parameters relating to the usage events and when/how the collected information is stored. The usage analytics may also be used to filter, collapse and boost different items in the search results.
