Blacklight - http://projectblacklight.org/
It's a full featured application fronting Solr. It's Ruby on Rails based, and powers many library front-ends but is becoming much more general purpose for other domains. See examples here: https://github.com/projectblacklight/blacklight/wiki/Examples Also, the forensics domain has used it as well, as mentioned in the slides and talk I attended at Lucene Revolution earlier this year: <http://www.lucidimagination.com/blog/2011/06/01/solr-and-law-enforcement-highly-relevant-results-can-be-a-crime/> Often the decision for an application layer like this is determined by the programming language and frameworks used. Blacklight is "opinionated" (as any other concrete implementation would be) in this regard. If it fits your tastes, it's a great technology to use.
