Hi Symeon: We looked at Apache Lucene a few months back. Lucene technology is the core for Solr project from Apache. Since both of these projects run under the Apache Tomcat engine which is the basis for our U2WebLink product, it seemed a natural fit.
There was the compelling hooks in the technology we liked such as JSON APIs, full-text indexing, and the ability to use a simple HTTP GET command to pass parameters to search engine to retrieve the data. There also was hit highlighting and distributed search and index replication similar to the Hadoop Apache project. Unfortunately, we did not have a partner willing to share the burden. Maybe we can talk off-line and see if we can work together on a project like this.
