Hi, I have been looking at solr, lucene and nutch websites and tutuorials for over a week now, experimenting and learning, but also frustrated be the fact the I am totally missing the 'how to' do what I want. I see a lot of examples of how to use each of the tools, but not how to put them all together. I think an 'overview' at the 10,000 foot level is needed, Maybe one is available and I have not yet found it. If someone can point me to one, please do.
If I am correct that an overview on "How To Build A Web Based Search Engine With Solr, Lucene and Nutch" is not available, then I will be willing to write an overview and make it available to the Solr community. I will need input, explanation and review of others. My 2 goals are: 1) Build a demo web based search engine [Note: I have a very specific business need to able to demonstrate a web application on top of a search engine. This demo is intended to show a 'proof of concept' of the web application to a small audience.] 2) Document the process of building the demo and customizing it using the java API so that others can more easily build their own web base search engine.
