MySQL has had FULLTEXT searching in one form or another since version 3.23.23. FULLTEXT indices in MySQL allow database administrators and programmers to designate any character-based field (CHAR, VARCHAR, or TEXT) as a FULLTEXT index, which allows for complex text searching against data stored in those fields.
