Abstract
Engineering a Web search engine offering effective and efficient information retrieval is a challenging task. This document presents our experiences from designing and developing a Web search engine offering a wide spectrum of functionalities and we report some interesting experimental results. A rather peculiar design choice of the engine is that its index is based on a DBMS, while some of the distinctive functionalities that are offered include advanced Greek language stemming, real time result clustering, and advanced link analysis techniques (also for spam page detection).
