Dynamically Load Query Time Synonym File

[Sphene Software]

Hello,

Is there a way to dynamically load a synonym file without restarting solr
core ?

If this is possible, what are the negative side effects of these ?

Example:
If Synonym file is loaded dynamically, what happens to the results of the
queries stored in the queryresultscache ?


Thanks in advance

Dynamically changing facet hierarchies and facet values

[Sphene Software]

Hello,

I have a use case where the facet hierarchies as well as facet names change
very frequently.

For example:
(Smartphones >> Android ) may become
Smartphones >> GSM >> And roid.

OR
   "Smartphone"  could be renamed to "Smart Phone"

If I use traditional hierarchical faceting, then every change would mean a
re-index of a large number of documents.

Just curious to know how others have solved this problem in the past.


Appreciate your help!
