A fairly solid search platform built on Lucene.
What do you like best? Solr is built on top of Apache Lucene, which is a trusted search indexing platform. What do you dislike? Managing the Solr instances was proving to be a pain, which is why we made the switch to ElasticSearch. What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized? General content indexing for recipes, articles, news postings, log data, reporting.
