What happens if they search for "hello monkey" and match against "hello my monkeys"? What should it return? Why does your database not contain "hello" instead of 199?
I am saying because if your clients are truly searching for just one word, then Solr may be an overkill for you. Perhaps you are looking for just "indexOf" within a string with parallel offset->OCR data structure. So, there is a hidden question in there of "why do you choose Solr". Then, there is a point that Solr searches words/numbers/geo-spacial but returns documents. So, sometimes, you need to understand what is a "document" for your business case. And transform your content for that. E.g. if you are really just searching for one word, then maybe you index your whole book as a bunch of document each containing a word, its OCR offset information, its book id. And if it is a couple of words, maybe you have a secondary field with context of that sentence (in index-only) form. Don't be afraid to abandon your first schema. Your business requirement is different enough. Regards, Alex.
