Re: Solr and Oracle

Thank you Bertrand.

The documentation on Solr is still sparse. I've already looked in  
SolrResources, find some idea, but not exactly what I need.  When my  
solution will work, I will document it into the wiki.

Instead of using Lucene's API directly, with Solr you'll have to add
your documents to the index using HTTP POST messages.

There are a few Java clients for Solr floating around on the wiki and
in Jira IIRC, but you just need a POST, any way of doing it is fine
(using jakarta httpclient for example).

See http://wiki.apache.org/solr/SolrResources for more info.

Solr and Oracle

2006-11-23 Thread Nicolas St-Laurent

Hi,

Does someone use Solr to index/search in a database instead of XML  
documents ? I search for information about this and I don't find any.  
Actually, I index huge Oracle tables with Lucene with a custom made  
indexer/search engine. But I would prefer to use Solr instead. If  
someone can give me a hint on how to do this, I will appreciate.


Thanks,

Nicolas St-Laurent

I'm attaching the script I built with this. A few notes:


Well, I doesn't get the script...


I was very pleased with the Solr performance in my testing.
With our small corpus (65K docs) I was seeing over 240 qps
on my dev box (dual 3 GHz Xeon). I expect that it didn't touch
the disk at all, since the index is only 50 Meg.

Thank you wunder.  It gives me a good idea of what to expect of Solr.  
I understand that performance change a lot depending of the context  
of execution. It's a good idea to user JMeter to get a performance  
report. I will try this.

As of today Solr is running under Tomcat on a single dedicated box.
It's a 2.66Ghz P4, with 1 gig ram. The index has about 1.2 million
documents and is 1.2 gigs in size. This machine handles 250,000
queries per day with no problem. CPU load stays around 0.15 most of
the time.

I hope that is helpful to you.

Thank you Kevin. It gives me a good idea. I use a simple socket  
server right now in front of Lucene. I will give Solr a try.
