SUMA-Kit

One-stop search engine hosting toolkit

SUMA-Kit is an open-source software toolkit for building search engines written in Rust. While SUMA-Kit is compatible with large indexes like the European Open Web Index or news index data from Mastodon, a simple search engine can be built with just SUMA-Kit and a config file. SUMA-Kit provides a web server and takes care of all the technicalities. SUMA-Kit specifically targets commodity hardware and supports open standards like the OpenSearch protocol to enable easier entry into search engine building.
