3. Too hard to say from the way you have described it. Show us some sample input.
Jack, Here you go. *Row X* column1: "data here" column2: "more data here" ... user_id: 2002 *Row Y* column1: "data here" column2: "more data here" ... user_id: 45 *Row Z* column1: "data here" column2: "more data here" ... user_id: 45664 So what I plan on doing before inserting into mysql, which is where solr pulls the data from, is shrinking similar datasets into one row: *Single Row XYZ* column1: "data here" column2: "more data here" ... user_id: "2002 45 45664" Then I would like to have solr parse the user_id as a string. I just want to be sure that there wont be any fuzzy searching happening against the user_id. That is, 566 shouldn't be a valid value for the user_id list above. It has to return exact results based on user ids. Also I am wondering if this will affect performance at all, but I am thinking not because solr is very fast in general. Regards, Nate
