Thanks Stefan and Grant.
Yes solr seems very intresting i tried once, i am seeing now the
part of the
php client you mentioned.
What hapens if rhater than starting a server that opens a port to
listen to
requests, i call from php every time i need to search using for
example
exec(theSearchingProgram...., $arrayResult).
That won't perform. The main cost of searching is loading up the
index and you would have to do that every time.
By now is the solution i am
testing, but i am not sure if it is an elegant way of use this. I
would like
to know the pros and cons from each solution, in the first instance
i think
that opening a port has a security issue behind.
What kind of environment are you in that you can't secure the port?
I'm not a security expert, but starting points would be to allow only
from a given IP, use SSL, put behind a firewall, etc. Treat Solr
just as you treat a database in the typical tiered architecture.
