Would it be possible for the derby team to implement lucene support in the following way? Hook into the asynchronous replication protocol to send committed transactions to a lucene receiver. I think it is acceptable for the free text search to only "see" committed data. Alterative to opening the protocol would be to create an abstract ReceiverServer for asynchronous data, then LuceneReceiver is just a subclass. Thoughts?
Hi Geoffrey,
Thanks for moving this discussion forward. There is already some discussion of lucene integration and a fair amount of hand-waving in http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-472 and http://wiki.apache.org/db-derby/LuceneIntegration In particular, the wiki page poses 3 use-cases for this integration: loose coupling, moderate coupling, and tight coupling. Once we look under the hood, some of these use-cases may not make sense. Am I right in assuming that you are interested in tight-coupling?
Thanks, -Rick
