What algorithms and software tools are implemented in DNA similarity search and match databases like CODIS?

What algorithms and software tools are implemented in DNA similarity search and match databases like CODIS? Have a 1000 of fasta files, want to index them somehow and make a database to perform a one-to-all DNA similarity search and return the closest matchs on query. What software and bioinformatics tools are appropriate for that task? Is it good to use fuzzy match text processing or a BLAST way? Are there any open source software and tutorials for these? Does anybody have a similar experience in ethnogeography genomics based on STRs and Y chm markers and DNA similarity matching?

dna similarity forensic software

What is CODIS? What is a fuzy match. Why etnography?

is that not the DNA db they use in series (and real life) like CSI etc ?? Combined DNA Index System (CODIS)

I'm also a little weary about this as his "user name" is plantgenomics and the CODIS and ethnography are typical for human DNA field ....
