There are multi-valued fields as well. You just have to be creative in the
flattening process.
And there is a "join" capability as well:

In any case, try to take the simplest approaches first before getting overly
complex.
Maybe start by focusing on what you expect that a user query will look like
in Solr.

Ah. What if I cannot flatten it because I have an array of hashes?
Thanks

Hi,
Is it possible to have a Solr documents with deeply nested data
structures?
e.g. (in JSON)
{
"name": "Fred",
"measurements": {
"chest": "15",
"legs": "32",
...
}
}
?
Thanks
