The AltaVista Web Search Engine
Louis Monier, Digital Equipment Corporation
Abstract:
AltaVista is the result of a research project started in the summer of 1995 at Digitals Research Laboratories in Palo Alto, California, that combined a fast Web crawler with scalable indexing software. Within three weeks of launch, the AltaVista site was handling over two million HTTP requests per day. By May 1996, the index had grown to more than 30,000,000 pages, and the site was receiving twelve million daily HTTP requests. This talk will describe the software and hardware technology behind this popular and successful Web search engine.
