The KBase Search module is responsible for providing a search capability that guides users to KBase data of interest. A public facing web service provides core search capabilities on KBase data types, and a search web UI found in https://github.com/kbase/ui-common and seen from https://narrative.kbase.us provides a rich client interface to guide users toward KBase data that best meet their criteria.

KBase Search layers on top of Apache Solr to provide full-text search of KBase public data.
