Hi,
I wonder if someone might be able to shed some insight into this problem:
Is it possible and/or what is the best/accepted way to achieve deduplication of
documents by field at query-time?
For example:
Let's say an index contains:
Doc1
--------------------
host:Host1
time:1 Sept 09
appname:activePDF
Doc2
--------------------
host:Host1
time:2 Sept 09
appname:activePDF
Doc3
--------------------
host:Host1
time:3 Sept 09
appname:activePDF
Can a query be constructed that would return only 1 of these Documents based on
appname (doesn't really matter which one)?
i.e.:
match on host:Host1
ignore time
dedupe on appname:activePDF
Is this possible? Would FunctionQuery be helpful here, maybe? Am I actually
talking about field collapsing?
Many thanks,
Peter
