Hi Listeners! We have introduced solr in one of our customer projects some time ago. In the application the search is more useful and a lot of faster than database soundex search;-)
But the design of the index creation mechanism is still a little bit confusing and we are unsure what is the "best" strategy to set up an index correctly. The main framework for our webapps is spring with all submodules like springbatch. What is the proper way to setup an index from different datasources? Should we create a special springbased dataimporthandler that does all the logic and has access to three differenct datasources (database, webservice, file) or should we implement the business logic outside solr and send searchdocuments afterwards to solr? We prefer the first proposed version with the dataimporthandler, but I did not find any example to integrate spring into a dataimporthandler. Can you provide some hints how to integrate spring? Thank you. Best regards.
