Awesome Solr

Solr is a Web Service (REST) that provides applications API access to create and manage search indices (Collections) that behave like a NoSQL storage for Documents with Fields. The data saved in a collection of Solr documents can be queried using a variety of query syntaxes, most commonly the Lucene query syntax, dismax, or edismax. Solr's web server based on Jetty wraps the Lucene API with a web service so that developers and applications don't need to do the housekeeping involved in managing the index files themselves.
