Hi Raymond, as Charlie correctly stated, the input format is not that important, what is important is to focus on your requirements and properly design a configuration and data model to solve them.
Extracting the information for such a data format is not going to be particularly challenging ( as i assume you know the semantic of such structure). You need to properly build your Solr document accordingly to the set of features you want to expose. Designing fields and field types will be fundamental to reach the search flexibility you are looking for. e.g. *Feature*: expose a fast range search on a numerical field (Int) *Implementation* : <Index time>[1] IntPointField Integer field (32-bit signed integer). This class encodes int values using a "Dimensional Points" based data structure that allows for very efficient searches for specific values, or ranges of values. For single valued fields, docValues="true" must be used to enable sorting. <Query time>[2] Regards [1] https://lucene.apache.org/solr/guide/7_3/field-types-included-with-solr.html [2] https://lucene.apache.org/solr/guide/7_3/the-standard-query-parser.html#range-searches ----- --------------- Alessandro Benedetti Search Consultant, R&D Software Engineer, Director Sease Ltd. - www.sease.io -- Sent from: http://lucene.472066.n3.nabble.com/Solr-User-f472068.html
