Re: difference between geospatial search from database angle and from solr angle

2011-04-06 Thread Sean Bigdatafun
Thanks, David. I am thinking of a scenario that billions of objects, whose indices are too big for a single machine to serve the indexing, to serve the querying. Is there any sharding mechanism? Can you give a comparison between solr-based geospatial search and PostGIS based geospatial search?

I understand Solr can do pretty powerful geospatial search http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/java/library/j-spatial/ But I also understand lots of DB researchers have done lots of geospatial related work, can someone give an overview of th

Could you please give a pointer to the SolrCloud architecture? Could you please give a comprehensive explanation between it and Katta? * targetted app difference? * scalability difference? * flexibility difference and so on Thanks, Sean On Wed, Jan 19, 2011 at 12:07 PM, Mark Mille

Are their goal fudanmentally different at all or just different approaches to solve the same problem (sharding)? Can someone give a technical review? Thanks, --Sean
