Hi, how difficult would it be (as in pure conceptual discussion) to turn Solr into a service registry? One of the key things about a registry is searching (usually by a taxonomy), are there ways to associate / classify documents and to identify collections in solr/lucene?
The classic way to write a registry is to use ORM techniques, and I just wonder is text search is perhaps a better (more flexible) way. So for example if I had an XML schema defining my service types I could index documents (services / datasets) of that type. Any thoughts appreciated ... Norman
