Abstract
Full-text search (FTS) is a powerful SQL Server feature allowing for advanced searches using multiple languages to find information in documents as well as document properties. FTS is tightly integrated with SQL Server 2014 and can be easily managed with SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS) and monitored with standard dynamic management views. FTS broadens the scope of what is thought of as a T-SQL search by providing meaningful results from sometimes seemingly unstructured textual data. SQL Server 2012 introduced statistical semantics which allow for searching on document meaning as opposed to simply searching content. Based on word distributions and other factors, statistical semantics allows you to find documents with similar contents.
