Questions to be answered before an integration:
Who are the key people for communication regarding search integration? (project management, development)
What is the project scope (list all channels that will be involved in the integration: b2b, b2c domains, languages used)
What is the data volume for those channels (total product count)
How frequent are data updates? (scheduled imports, real-time updates, etc, possibly number of updates per day)
How many page views, searches are performed each day in search-related pages?
How many accounts are necessary for the dashboard? Provide a list of the emails
What is an estimated go-live date?
List any special implementation details (e.g. different prices for customers/groups, use of Lupa for catalogue page, etc)
Do you plan to use LupaSearch not only in Search Page, but also in Catalogue? (for increased speed and performance)
Do your products have dynamic attribute fields that are added frequently? (e.g. product gets a new attribute that should be automatically added to search and/or filterable fields)
