 AFAIK, Experience Manager is close to Adobe's one, and they are both are
clones of guess what.. http://jackrabbit.apache.org/ (check wiki for jcr or
try to visit day.com). I suppose you can employ almost any CMS system
instead, which you consider affordable and handy.

I suppose it's not a piece of cake.. I suppose that it takes few month mid
size project to launch it. The challenges are:
- Faceted Navigation, which is done via Dimensions, exposed to frontend
that's quite unnatural for Solr. To be honest, Solr doesn't navigate
taxonomies out-of-the-box, but just provides a few hints to do so. Also,
navigating nested SKUs sometimes reveals some gaps, you know...
- Endeca also has some smart text search features like phrase guessing or
so. It's need to research how much you relies on it, and leverage some
Solr's straightforwardness
note:
- whatever boosting not a problem for Solr
- Hue is a data analytic interactive UI or even "IDE", I don't think you
need to look at.
