Why not just store an additional "object_type" field which differentiates between the actual type of data you are looking for?
So if you're looking for some shoes: (size:8 AND color:'blue') AND object_type:'shoe' Or if you're searching on brands (genre:'skater' AND brand_desc:'skater boy') AND object_type:'brand' I apologize if I misunderstood your question. /cody On 4/19/07, Matthew Runo <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Hey there- I was wondering if the following was possible, and, if so, how to set it up... I want to index two different types of data, and have them searchable from the same interface. For example, a group of products, with size, color, price, etc info. And a group of brands, with brand, genre, brand description, etc info So, the info does overlap some. But a lot of the fields for each "type" don't matter to the other. Is there a way to set up two different schema so that both types may be indexed with relative ease? +--------------------------------------------------------+ | Matthew Runo | Zappos Development | [EMAIL PROTECTED] | 702-943-7833 +--------------------------------------------------------+
