Hi All, First off, what a fabulous job you all are doing creating and supporting an open source solution! Great Work and many thanks for that.
I am reasonably new to SOLR and our team is trying to integrate SOLR to a structured database to help with Searching Person Records (first name, last name, address etc). Our developers (who also are currently learning SOLR) have managed to get the initial set up done, but when I am trying to test, I do see that there are a lot of seemingly unrelated results coming up potentially because of the combinations of algorithms used. Because of that, I was wondering, is there any subset of algorithms that are recommended to be used when working with relation DB for items such as names and addresses as opposed to searching a website for a string etc. Also is there any link to algorithms and their behaviours with some examples that non technical persons can relate to. I am not a technical person myself, but I am trying to learn from the experts here who might have been there and done that many times over. Thanks, Bijesh EB
