There is asynchronous and non-blocking. If I use 100 threads to perform
calls to Solr using the standard Java HTTP client or SolrJ I block 100
threads even if I don't block my program logic threads by using async
calls. However if I perform those HTTP calls using a non-blocking HTTP
client, like netty, I basically only need a single eventing thread in
addition to my normal threads. The advantage is less memory usage and an
often better scaling. I would however expect that the main advantage
would be on the server side.

It's not very clear (to me) what your use case is, but generally speaking,
asynchronous requests can be achieved by using threads/executors/futures
(java) or ajax (javascript). The link seems to be a scala project, I'm sure
scala has analogous facilities.

Hi Guys,
I am trying to write fully async service where solr calls are also async.
Just wondering did anyone tried calling solr in non-blocking mode or is
there is a way to do it? I have come across one such project
<https://github.com/inoio/solrs> but wondering is there anything provided
by solrj?
Thanks
