Doug Turnbull
Doug Turnbull, Solr and Elasticsearch expert and author of Relevant Search, lives and breathes smart, relevant search. Doug moves clients away from basic text matching to search with domain and business intelligence built in. To help bridge the gap, Doug created Quepid, a search relevancy collaboration canvas used extensively in Open Source Connection’s search work, and Splainer a Solr search results explanation tool and sandbox.
