Top management has given requirements that force a broken design. They are 
requiring something that is impossible with Solr.

1. Flatten the data. You get one table, no joins.

2. 12M records is not a big Solr index. That should work fine.

3. If the supplier activity points are updated frequently, you could use an 
external file field for those, but they still need to be flattened.
