Hi,

So for your use case are you wanting to search for a consultant then look at all of his or her request or pull both at the same time? In both cases one index should suffice. In you define a primary key field and use it for both doc types it shouldn't be an issue. Unless your dataset in very large it would reduce the overhead of running a multicore solution especially in indexing etc

Thanks for all your answers guys. Requests and consultants have a many
to many relationship so I can't store request info in a document with
advisorID as the primary key.

Bill's solution and multicore solutions might be what I am looking
for. Bill, will I be able to have 2 primary keys (so I can update and
delete documents)? If yes, can you please give me a link or someting
where I can get more info on this?

Thanks,
Moazzam

You can keep different type of documents in the same index.  If each
document has a type field. You can restrict your searches to specific
type(s) of document by using a filter query, which is very fast and
efficient.

Multi-core is an option, but keep in mind if you go that route you will
need to do two searches to correlate data between the two.

Sounds like you'll want to use a multiple core setup. One core fore each
type
of "document"
