In Detail
With over 40 billion web pages, the importance of optimizing a search engines performance is essential.
Solr is an open source enterprise search platform from the Apache Lucene project. Full-text search, faceted search, hit highlighting, dynamic clustering, database integration, and rich document handling are just some of its many features. Solr is highly scalable thanks to its distributed search and index replication.
Solr is written in Java and runs as a standalone full-text search server within a servlet container such as Apache Tomcat or Jetty. Solr uses the Lucene Java search library at its core for full-text indexing and search, and has REST-like HTTP/XML and JSON APIs that make it usable with most popular programming languages. Solrs powerful external configuration allows it to be tailored to many types of application without Java coding, and it has a plugin architecture to support more advanced customization.
With Apache Solr Beginners Guide you will learn how to configure your own search engine experience. Using real data as an example, you will have the chance to start writing step-by-step, simple, real-world configurations and understand when and where to adopt this technology.
Apache Solr Beginners Guide will start by letting you explore a simple search over real data. You will then go through a step-by-step description that gives you the chance to explore several practical features. At the end of the book you will see how Solr is used in different real-world contexts.
Using data from public domains like DBpedia, you will define several different configurations, exploring some of the most interesting Solr features, such as faceted search and navigation, auto-suggestion, and rich document indexing. You will see how to configure different analysers for handling different data types, without programming.
You will learn the basics of Solr, focusing on real-world examples and practical configurations.

Alfredo Serafini is a freelance software consultant, currently living in Rome, Italy.
He has a mixed background. He has a bachelor's degree in Computer Science Engineering (2003, with a thesis on Music Information Retrieval), and he has completed a professional master's course in Sound Engineering (2007, with a thesis on gestural interface to MAX/MSP platform).
From 2003 to 2006, he had been involved as a consultant and developer at Artificial Intelligence Research at Tor Vergata (ART) group. During this experience, he got his first chance to play with the Lucene library. Since then he has been working as a freelancer, alternating between working as a teacher of programming languages, a mentor for small companies on topics like Information Retrieval and Linked Data, and (not surprisingly) as a software engineer.
He is currently a Linked Open Data enthusiast. He has also had a lot of interaction with the Scala language as well as graph and network databases.
You can find more information about his activities on his website, titled designed to be unfinished, at http://www.seralf.it/.
This is my first book, and I was out of my mind when I thought about writing an entire book in English, which is not my native language. Now it's done, and I have to thank all the people from Packt Publishing who have worked hard on this project, and for their huge patience in tolerating my bad attitude with schedules, formatting, and weird errors. I am thankful to them for their kindness and for always giving me the best suggestions. All the responsibility for some disjointed phrase, or some errors that survived the revisions, should be attributed only to me.
I also want to thank all the people on the Solr or Lucene mailing list. People who find and share solutions on a day-to-day basis without having the time to write a book. I have tried to cite every idea that comes to me by external, direct, or indirect suggestions, but as you see it's almost impossible. I've found inspiration from the books of David Smiley, Eric Pughs, and Jack Krupansky, and also from the huge contributions by the LucidWorks company, starting with the new reference guide.
I also want to thank professor Roberto Basili, who introduced me to this field some years ago.
I know I have probably oversimplified some of the more advanced topics, in order to expose readers to a broader vision of the context in which this technology exists. But when conducting technical courses I have learned that people often need to share ideas in order to construct their own path into a practical knowledge. So I thank you in advance for every time you'll want to share this read with your teammates, integrating different knowledge and points of view, exploring these topics outside an approach oriented merely to the technical features.
I want to give all my gratitude to my beloved father, who taught me to respect other's people work, and to my mother and sister for their constant trust in me. Also, I want to thank my friends for their support. However, this is only the first step, and I am supposed to do better in future with a little help from my friends.
