info on how lucene conducsts a search?
Hello all, can someone point me to info or docs on how a lucene search is conducted? i would like to have a better understanding of how this works in general - but also from a design perspective. for instance - a question that keeps coming up is, should we add content to a given core - or break it out in to another core - for performance reasons. thx mark -- View this message in context: http://lucene.472066.n3.nabble.com/info-on-how-lucene-conducsts-a-search-tp4022665.html Sent from the Lucene - Java Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: java-user-unsubscr...@lucene.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: java-user-h...@lucene.apache.org
Re: info on how lucene conducsts a search?
hello, thanks for the info. as you suggested - i did do a general search and found this slide presentation - which had some good general info. i am not sure what the source of this preso, how qualified the author (although he/she seems very good) or how current the information is? http://www.slideshare.net/nitin_stephens/lucene-basics#btnNext i have been working with solr for over a year - but feel like i am missing the larger picture and want to know more. is the lucene in action book good and worth buying - it looks like it covers lucene 3.0 but may be 2 years old now. thx mark -- View this message in context: http://lucene.472066.n3.nabble.com/info-on-how-lucene-conducsts-a-search-tp4022665p4022676.html Sent from the Lucene - Java Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: java-user-unsubscr...@lucene.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: java-user-h...@lucene.apache.org
