Hey,

elasticsearch has support for fuzzy queries,  
See [Elasticsearch Platform — Find real-time answers at scale | Elastic](http://www.elasticsearch.org/guide/reference/query-dsl/fuzzy-query.html)  
or [Elasticsearch Platform — Find real-time answers at scale | Elastic](http://www.elasticsearch.org/guide/reference/query-dsl/fuzzy-query.html)

Be aware that fuzzy queries can be pretty slow, so it might make sense to  
execute such a costly search only in case you did not get any other search  
results with more exact queries..

just as an update the 0.90Beta has fast fuzzy queries from Lucene 4.0 so  
you should rather go to the beta directly if you wanna use it.
