SharePoint 2013 Search Database Part 1

SharePoint 2013 Search architecture drastically change, as earlier in FS4SP 2010 we have 2 search applications “FASTContentSSA” and “FASTQuerySSA” and 7 total database in use.

In SharePoint 2013 search has only 1 Search Service application and 4 database in use. No property store database need any more, now the properties are directly stored inside the index component and all the index directly indexed to the physical system where FS4SP data comes from database as well as from the File system now data directly stored and indexed/ retried from the Physical disk because of this performance increase and search experienced improve.
