Hi Peter, Yeah, familiar recommendations - http://twitter.com/otisg/status/1907773452
I've used BDB for this type of stuff in the past and was pleased with BDBs performance, ability to scale, and the simplicity of the API. I would not use Solr itself for this. This one is from January: http://www.metabrew.com/article/anti-rdbms-a-list-of-distributed-key-value-stores/ It doesn't include some of the newer things I found - see http://www.simpy.com/user/otis/tag/%22hash+table%22 Otis -- Sematext -- http://sematext.com/ -- Lucene - Solr - Nutch ----- Original Message ---- > From: Peter Keane <pke...@mail.utexas.edu> > To: solr-user@lucene.apache.org > Sent: Tuesday, May 26, 2009 10:50:19 AM > Subject: recommendation for document store to use alongside Solr? > > Hi All- > > I've just recently began playing with Apache Solr, and it seems to be > a perfect fit for our project (http://code.google.com/p/dase/).
