Summary:Resources are typically stored in homogenous data structures by shredding resource data into database tables destroying a native format of the resources. Typical approaches to indexing the resources rely on users indicating properties that should be indexed, using full text searches to create resource index documents, and other such labor and computation intensive processes. Functionality can be implemented to dynamically generate the resource index documents based on resource properties with minimal user input. The resource index documents can be in a common format to facilitate access to resources stored in heterogeneous native resource formats.
