9.0.0 See here for module to Solr compatibility. |
The Solr module (full name Magnolia Solr Search Provider Module) allows you to use Apache Solr, a standalone enterprise-grade search server with a REST-like API, for indexing and crawling Magnolia content, especially if you need to manage assets in high volumes (100,000+ DAM assets).
| For a brief overview of Solr’s main features see the Solr search page. |
Module structure
The module (parent) consists of five submodules. The first two – Content Indexer and Solr Search Provider – are required for correct functioning of the Solr search feature.
