That depends on what you mean by "unstructured" and "handle".
If by "unstructured" you mean things like PDFs and MSWord - which are structured under the covers, then yes. Solr ships with Apache Tika to injest such documents (see shipped examples as well as Data Import Handler example). E.g. http://lucene.apache.org/solr/guide/7_4/uploading-data-with-solr-cell-using-apache-tika.html#uploading-data-with-solr-cell-using-apache-tika and http://lucene.apache.org/solr/guide/7_4/uploading-structured-data-store-data-with-the-data-import-handler.html You do have to map what you extract to what you mean by "handle". If you mean just long blob of text (e.g. whole book as a plain text file), then we go straight to "handle" - what you want to find and how you want to search for it. So, think backwards from the search. What you need to find and then what you have. Then come back with the question on how to connect the dots in the middle. Regards, Alex.
