About this Presentation
Apache Solr serves search requests at enterprises and the largest companies around the world. Built on top of the top-notch Apache Lucene library, Solr makes indexing and searching integration into your applications straightforward. This talk will introduce Solr's capabilities with live demonstrations.
Solr provides faceted navigation, spell checking, highlighting, clustering, grouping, and other search features. Solr can index rich documents such as PDF, Word, HTML, and other file types. Query volume scales with replication and collection size with distributed capabilities including the power of the new SolrCloud near-real-time distributed indexing.
