Apache Solr Opspack

Apache Solr is an open source enterprise search service from the Lucene project. Solr is written in Java and runs as a standalone full-text search server within a servlet container such as Tomcat. Like any service or component in your architecture, you’ll want to monitor it to ensure that it’s available and gather performance data to help with tuning. The Apache Solr Opspack assists in providing scalability for users as well as distributed indexing, replication and load-balanced querying, automated failover/recovery, centralized configuration and more.
