I am really new to the search space and to Solr, so I apologize if my
question seems primitive.
Can Solr index database records directly by accessing whatever db server
I have, or does it only index web documents (via http)?
Take a look at the tutorial:
http://lucene.apache.org/solr/tutorial.html
out of the "box", solr indexes xml files that match your schema
The tutorial with these example files:
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/lucene/solr/trunk/example/exampledocs/
There is an experimental SQL interface, but I'd recommend getting
familiar with the standard XML support before considering that route.
