I went through threads here and here for constructing a full fledged text search engine in RoR. But both these threads are very old (>2 years). I would like to know what is the latest and most stable fuzzy search engine that is compatible and used in rails. Links to resources/tutorials are welcome!

Also popular at the moment is Sunspot. Database independent, but built by Apache, so a bit on the complex side of things. Luckily the Sunspot gem helps a great deal in making it easier to use. I would recommend you use a monitoring daemon with it (like God).
