Hi Lenya users,

at the moment, we configure the search index per publication. It is probably possible to use the same search index across multiple publications, but I wonder if this flexibility is really necessary or could maybe be even harmful.

I see the following advantages of using a common index for all publications:


I think a common index is bad, because

- What if the index is becoming corrupt for whatever reason?
- What if you want to use one single Lenya instance for hosting multiple publications and one needs to protect the content from each other

Cheers

- Less configuration, easier maintenance.

- Narrowing down the search to a single publication (or a set of publications) is easy (just add a search term), extending it beyond the index scope is (AFAIK) impossible.

- The asset and link management usecases could be used to include documents from other publications. (In this case, the link URI would include the publication ID of the target to allow link resolving when rendering the page.)


But maybe there are advantages of per-publication indexes that I haven't considered yet. WDYT?
