Hi I have just started out on lucene and experimenting with some possibilities. My goal is to try to exploit an existing database index (which in my case is an inverted index) to serve as a Lucene Index. this helps me avoid need of additional indexing time and storage space.
Is this possible ? What are the best practices to integrate Lucene to provide Search capabilities on a column-oriented databases ? Any pointers / suggestions are highly appreciated. Thanks Pradeep
