Very basic dude with Solr/Lucene [duplicate]

Question

I am working in a project that has a large amount of data in Lucene. We need to show a faceted search and the time required for it is unacceptable when trying to simulate it using regular Lucene accesss.

I have been reading about Solr, but tutorials are not very clear about this basic point:

Is the data stored in the same way using Solr and Lucene? I mean, could I access the data I have stored with Lucene by using Solr or would I have to make a data migration?

Answer 1

Yes, you can use the same Lucene index in a Solr instance. You only need to create a schema.xml to match the fields you have in your index.
