1. A method comprising:

  • receiving, by a search manager computer, a search query and a selection from a user interface on a user computing device, wherein the selection includes a level of precision and selects an analytic computer that processes search query results for a presentation to the user, wherein the search manager computer receives the selection before receiving the search query results, wherein the selection selects an analytic method which is applied to the search query results, wherein the search manager computer processes the search query via one or more processes selected from the group consisting of;

    address standardization, proximity boundaries, and nickname interpretation;

    submitting, by the search manager computer, the search query to a search conductor computer for conducting a search based at least in part on the search query, wherein at least one of the search manager computer, the analytic computer, or the search conductor computer at least partially defines an in-memory database, wherein the search manager computer, the analytic computer, and the search conductor computer are distinct distributed nodes;

    receiving, by the search manager computer, the search query results from the search conductor computer, wherein the search query results having one or more records matching the search query, wherein the search query results are based at least in part on the search, wherein the search query results contain at least one of an alphanumeric content or an image content;

    forwarding, by the search manager computer, based at least in part on the search query results received from the search conductor computer, the search query results to the analytic computer selected by the user to process the search query results for the presentation such that a feature is disambiguated in the search query results according to the level of precision, wherein the analytic computer processes based at least in part on the analytic method, and wherein the analytic method interprets at least one of the alphanumeric content or the image content;

    receiving, by the search manager computer, from the analytic computer, based at least in part on the forwarding, the search query results processed based at least in part on the analytic method by the analytic computer selected by the user; and

    returning, by the search manager computer, the search query results to the user device for the presentation to the user in accordance with the processing based at least in part on the analytic method by the analytic computer.
