Solr supports sorting. https://wiki.apache.org/solr/CommonQueryParameters#sort https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/solr/Common+Query+Parameters#CommonQueryParameters-ThesortParameter I think we may have an omission from the docs -- docValues can also be used for sorting, and may also offer a performance advantage.
