It might be interesting to merge using BDB into Solr, as an option to provide better realtime updates. Perhaps the replication could be used as well in place of rsync? I don't have any experience with BDB replication, anyone have thoughts on the matter?
It only matters if you need immediate retrieval by id, but not immediate searchability. In most of these scenarios, Lucene/Solr is not used as the primary data store. Updates go directly to the database, and a separate process periodically pulls changes from the database and indexes the content. An interesting idea for integration on the search-side might be to allow a hook to retrieve certain stored fields from other data sources (like a DB) so that info need not be duplicated in the Lucene index if it's big. That does tie you tighter to the DB though (not a good thing in general). -Yonik http://incubator.apache.org/solr Solr, the open-source Lucene search server --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
