RE: XML data in solr field
Thankyou Tommy. But the real problem here is that the xml is dynamic and the element names will be different in different docs which means that there will be a lot of field names to be added in schema if I were to index those xml nodes separately. Is it possible to have nested indexing (xml within xml) in solr without the overhead of adding all those inner xml nodes as actual fields in solr schema?

That'll let you do the search easily. If you need to store the raw XML, you can use an extra field.

Is this supported in solr?? If it is, how can this be implemented?? root Venue value=Radio City Music Hall / Link value=http://bit.ly/Rndab; / LinkText value=En savoir + / Address value=New-York, USA / /root Any help is appreciated. I donot need the tag name in the result, instead I need the tag value. Thanks in advance, Manas Nair
Re: XML data in solr field
Have you considered an XML database? Because this is exactly what they are designed to do. eXist is open source, or you can use Mark Logic (my employer), which is much faster and more scalable. We do give out free academic and community licenses for Mark Logic. wunder On Mar 16, 2010, at 11:04 PM, Nair, Manas wrote: Thankyou Tommy.

Re: XML data in solr field
You can use dynamic fields (wildcard field names) to add any and all element names. You would have to add a suffix to every element name in your preparation, but you will not have to add all of the element names to your schema.
