Hi Venkat,

Search and Classification (TREX) features:

1. intelligent search and text mining functions

2. automatic classification

3. The powerful engines retrieve information from both structured and unstructured text.

4. index and classify documents and respond to search queries.

SAP Catalog Content Management (CCM) is an ABAP add-on. It consists of an authoring

tool and a search engine (CSE).

SAP Catalog Search Engine features:

1. Browse in Catalog

2. Search for items in Catalog

3. Select catalog items for ordering

Hi,

TREX is used to create and search indexes of the catalogue items.

The Catalogue Search Engine (CSE) component of CCM is used to search the catalogue using the alphabetic product category search and category hierrarchy drill down.

If the TREX server is down and you dry the searching on a word then no results will be found however you will still be able to drill down to the items using the hierarchy drill down.
