codingmasterRS Posted July 11, 2010 Share Posted July 11, 2010 First off I hope I have posted this in the right spot, if not Admins feel free to move it. Okay so I thinking of designing a web search engine (like Google/Bing/etc), and I was wandering what their DB structure was like, how do they link so many keywords and phrases to a URL etc, I am NOT concerned about their ranking algorithms just the DB structure etc... If you can offer ANY help in ANY way it would be very very much appreciated Thanks in advance codingmasterRS Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/207431-database-design/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

ignace Posted July 11, 2010 Share Posted July 11, 2010 First off SE like Google do not use MySQL they use a "NoSQL"-alternative like BigTable. Second their DB structure is not normalized (or not much) for performance.
