I need some advanced search features for a desktop application. The application is a .NET (C#) application, so I can't use Lucene and as I'm not sure about the future of Lucene.NET I consider using Solr (with SolrNET).
As I need a cache for the desktop app anyway it seems to be a good opportunity to solve two problems at once. Also, we will use Solr on the server, so we need to build know-how anyway. I currently make my way through the Solr 3 book (from Packt), so I'm a newbee to Solr. Has anyone experience with it? Are there some pitfalls I should be aware of? Deployment will be a challenge I guess. How about configuration? Can I "leave" Solr on a Clients machine with reasonable default settings? Many thanks, Jan
