Hi,

I have my data in HDFS,which I need to index using Solr.In that case,does Solr 
always store both the data (the fields that need to be retrieved) as well as 
the index, or  can it be configured to store only the index that points to the 
original data in HDFS.
Personally,I would like the latter feature as the former will unnecessary cause 
data duplication and will occupy more diskspace.
In a word,I feel that similar to database indexes,my data should not be 
required to get stored separately in any server(Solr server) and only the index 
should be created that will point to that data.

Would highly appreciate if you can let me know if such thing is possible in 
Solr (creating only the indexes,and not copying the retrievable data into Solr 
server).

Thanks
Bijoy
