Hi All,

I am new to the whole Solr/Lucene community. But I think this might be the
solution ot what I am looking to do. I would appreciate any feedback on how
I can go about doing this with Solr:

I am looking to make a system where -
a) mainly lots of different blog sites, web journals, articles are indexed
on a regular basis. Data that has already been indexed needs to be revisited
to see if there are any changes.
b) The end users has very fixed search terms, eg 'Lloyds TSB' and 'Corporate
Banking'. All the documents that are found matching this are presented to a
human to analyse.
c) Once the human analyses the document he gives it a rating of 1, 0 or -1.
This rating needs to be saved somewhere and be linked with the specific
document and also with the search term (eg 'Lloyds TSB' & 'Corporate
Banking' in this case).
d) End users can then see these documents with the ratings next to them.

What would be the best approach to this?

Should I set up a different database to save the rating and relevant
mappings, or is there any way to put it in to Solr?

My 2nd question is, can Solr Index be saved in a database in any way? Whats
the backup and recovery method on Solr?

Thanks in advance.

Nayeem
