Can you please let me know, what is the stable release? And will I
still be able to ship our application as war file? Any guide/steps do
the same is much appreciated.
The only releases in Solr's history that weren't stable releases were
4.0-ALPHA and 4.0-BETA, released before 4.0.0. The most current release
of Solr is 7.4.0. Unless a release is specifically tagged alpha or
beta, then the intent is for it to be a stable release.
Also, our application was running on tomcat/websphere, will it be any
different in Jetty?
Solr dropped official support for third-party containers with the
release of 5.0. It is still possible to run Solr in some containers,
but we cannot guarantee that it will work properly. The only container
that has received official testing by the project is the Jetty that
comes with Solr. It is strongly recommended that you use that container
to run Solr.
