As a software developer/architect I have always looked for new technologies that can be combined with things I have been using for a while. It started out with embedding specific tools/frameworks into the spring framework. After that, I started embedding charting libraries in angular and react applications. These days I am working a lot with elasticsearch. I am mostly doing relevance tuning. Some time ago, I starting learning about machine learning. My logical step is then to combine these two. Meet Learning To Rank. That is my main focus for the past year, how to get good search analytics and how to use these to improve the search results.
