Hi - I am a new user of Solr tool and came across the introductory tutorial here - http://lucene.apache.org/solr/tutorial.html . I am planning to use Solr in one of my projects . I see that the tutorial mentions about a REST api / interface to add documents and to query the same.
I would like to create the indices locally , where the web server (or pool of servers ) will have access to the database directly , but use the query REST api to query for the results. I am curious how this could be possible without taking the http rest api submission to add to indices. (For the sake of simplicity - we can assume it would be just one node to store the index but multiple readers / query machines that could potentially connect to the solr web service and retrieve the query results. Also the index might be locally present in the same machine as that of the Solr host or at least accessible through NFS etc. ) Thanks for helping out to some starting pointers regarding the same.
