Please add better documentation on how to create and use search indexes. It's very difficult to figure out using the existing documentation.

Samples, SDKs and tutorials for services

Hi, I think it is crucial for Bluemix success that for each service there will be SDK + working sample + tutorial for the main programming languages (at least Java, Node.js and PHP). For example I needed to connect from Node.js to the Object Stor...
