Hi again,
Today we are hosting a 300 million large search index without any problems in a lucene environment, with just some customization in the lucene api for ranking etc... So we are really satisfied with lucene. We also have the demands to search with documents on profiles we are currently using verity (autonomy) for this, where we store the profiles in the index and are using the document as query. The verity api we are using seems to have some internal threading problems (race conditions) so we need to find another way to perform those kind of searches. Does anybody have any ideas of any api that could do this for us? Any ideas on how lucene could be modified to do this kind of searches? The volumes are around 300k full length articles distributed some what evenly over a 24h period on a 50 k profilenet. /Mvh Marcus
