Yousef Ourabi commented on SOLR-373: ------------------------------------ Thomas, [ I'm not a solr-dev, these are just my thoughts / opinions ] I think that's a really horrible idea. That would promote the idea that solr is a relational database, and not a search index (inverted index). Here are my >> This would help people only knowing SQL syntax I think the query syntax is actually simpler than sql, anyone can pick it up in an hour or so of playing around with the documentation. >> In the first run I would not allow any joins. That's the entire point of a relational database, see first paragraph, solr/lucene is not a relational database. -Yousef > Build a JDBC driver to access Solr > ---------------------------------- > > Key: SOLR-373 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-373 > Project: Solr > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: search, update > Reporter: Thomas Peuss > Priority: Minor > > Hello! > Would it be a good thing to have a JDBC driver to access Solr?
