ApacheCon US 2008 Session

Apache Solr Day

Apache Solr has emerged as THE way to add search services to applications written in any language. Apache Lucene powers Solr's lightweight HTTP web services. This all-day tutorial will begin with a Solr overview, and moves through installation and configuration. The bulk of session will be spent diving into integrating Solr with various technologies. Solr features caching, replication support for load balancing, faceting, highlighting, more-like-this, simple HTTP protocol supporting XML, JSON, and other formats. Erik will also discuss his Solr experiences on the applications he has built with it.
