Searching through large amounts of text data can be tricky. MySQL's Full-Text Search allows you to perform powerful searches on text-based columns, going beyond simple LIKE queries. You can search in natural language, use Boolean operators, and even expand queries automatically to include related terms.

Full-Text Search is ideal for applications dealing with articles, product descriptions, reviews, or any content-rich database.

With Full-Text Search, you can:

  • Perform searches using natural language or Boolean mode.

  • Natural Language Search: type queries like normal sentences.

  • Boolean Search: refine queries using operators such as +, -, > and <.

  • Query Expansion: automatically include related terms.
