hi there, i know this topic has been discussed over time. it seems like the current two most possible solutions are :
1) using php-java-bridge to call java class from php code http://sourceforge.net/projects/php-java-bridge 2) deploy solr and interact with php through http & xml http://incubator.apache.org/solr/features.html i'm curious that, any other solution come up recently ? i'm inclined to use 2)Solr as i don't want to mess up java with php. does anyone have experience on doing that in production environment ? one more question, does anyone have idea how facebook implement their search ? facebook uses php, guess they should face the same problem, their solution should be very worth to reference. cheers, anson
