Hello all, I'm a Lucene user and fan, I wanted to tell you that we just released a first technology preview of a distributed in memory Directory for Lucene.
The release announcement: http://infinispan.blogspot.com/2009/11/second-release-candidate-for-400.html >From there you'll find links to the Wiki, to the sources, to the issue tracker. A minimal demo is included with the sources. This was developed together with Google Summer of Code student Lukasz Moren and much support from the Infinispan and Hibernate Search teams, as we are storing the index segments on Infinispan and using it's atomic distributed locks to implement a Lucene LockFactory. Initial idea was to contribute it directly to Lucene, but as Infinispan is a LGPL dependency we had to distribute it with Infinispan (as the other way around would have introduced some legal issues); still we hope you appreciate the effort and are interested in giving it a try. All kind of feedback is welcome, especially on benchmarking methodologies as I yet have to do some serious performance tests. Main code, build with Maven2: svn co http://anonsvn.jboss.org/repos/infinispan/tags/4.0.0.CR2/lucene-directory/ infinispan-directory Demo, see the Readme: svn co http://anonsvn.jboss.org/repos/infinispan/tags/4.0.0.CR2/demos/lucene-directory/ lucene-demo Best Regards, Sanne -- Sanne Grinovero Sourcesense - making sense of Open Source: http://www.sourcesense.com --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: java-dev-unsubscr...@lucene.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: java-dev-h...@lucene.apache.org
