Wouldn't one just create an index on the > database? you can do that, but IMHO, that's not a very unified way of searching, since there are now 2 indexes on which to search. What if the data resides on more than one database? On different databases? What I tried to do was basically have Lucene handle _all_ indexing and searching... I can definitely see the pros of having the database index the data though, just didn't think it was very clean.
