You can simply call IndexWriter.addDocument() for new jobs and IndexWriter.updateDocument

Users will be posting a number jobs on our site on a daily basis.We need to make sure that new job posted is searchable on the site as soon as possible. In this context, how do I update Lucene index when a new job is posted or when an existing job is edited? Can lucene index updating and search work in parallel? Also,can I know any tips/best practices with respect to Lucene indexing,optimizing,performance etc? Appreciate ur help!
