Jason Rutherglen commented on SOLR-1316:
----------------------------------------

The DAWG seems like a potential fit as a replacement for the
Lucene term dictionary. It would provide the extra benefit of
faster prefix etc lookups. I believe it could be stored on disk
by writing file pointers to the locations of the letters. I
found the Stanford lecture on them interesting, though the
papers seem to overcomplicate them. I coauld not find an existing
Java implementation. 

As a generic library I think it could be useful for a variety of
Lucene based use cases (i.e. storing terms in a compact form
that allows fast lookups, prefix and otherwise).

> Autosuggest is a common search function that can be integrated
> into Solr as a SearchComponent. Our first implementation will
> use the TernaryTree found in Lucene contrib. 
> * Enable creation of the dictionary from the index or via Solr's
> RPC mechanism
> * What types of parameters and settings are desirable?
> * Hopefully in the future we can include user click through
> rates to boost those terms/phrases higher
