I suppose you can employ almost any CMS system instead, which you consider affordable and handy. 2. How long does a typical migration take?

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. > > Thanks > > > > -- > View this message in context: > http://lucene.472066.n3.nabble.com/Endeca-to-Solr-Migration-tp4144582.html > Sent from the Solr - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. > -- Sincerely yours Mikhail Khludnev Principal Engineer, Grid Dynamics <http://www.griddynamics.com> <mkhlud...@griddynamics.com>
