Thanks Ryan for your insight. I do not wish to change Solr.
Although it seems weird, just adding a "type" field makes it possible
I'm not working with a DB but since we are indexing a huge vault of XML
documents, I use Hadoop + Lucene for indexing which finally generates N
number of partitions, I was thinking to use Solr as the searcher and will
have a broker which merges results from individual Solr searchers.
I do not know if I can ask another question here or start a new thread.
I use a custom Analyzer which extends Lucene's StandardAnalyzer. When I
configured Solr to use this one, It throws an exception
RuntimeException("Can't set positionIncrementGap on custom analyzer " +
analyzer.getClass()).
Do I need to extend a specific Analyzer for it to work with Solr?

As it is now... I don't think so. SolrCore is a static singleton
class -- without some serious reworking, i think there is only one
instance per jvm.
I think getting rid of the static singleton should go on the long term
TODO list, but that doesn't help you now.
Although it seems weird, just adding a "type" field makes it possible
to put things that seem like they need their own database into the
same index - you select the 'type' you want by adding "+type:mytype"
to your query
