Gert--

I'm not sure I understand what you're trying to build.  Your description is a 
little vague.  Perhaps you could provide some use-cases?

I recommend that you read the UIMA docs and then ask any questions you still 
have.

Be aware the UIMA is not a search engine.  If all you want to do is index some 
documents, then maybe all you need is Apache Lucene.  For the structured side, 
maybe you need a data warehouse.  Or maybe you just want to index some of the 
CLOBs and VARCHARS into a search engine.  It's hard to tell from your 
description.
