Friendfeed schemaless data in MYSQL

I read an article around schema-less database which sounds cool. (http://bret.appspot.com/entry/how-friendfeed-uses-mysql)

But what isn't clear to me is how do they run search queries on this data? Since the data is in JSON format how do we look for it?

Solution

  • They're using sphinx for that
