> * Using the Admin Web Interface: introduces the Solr Web

> and monitor and control distributed configurations.
> * Documents, Fields, and Schema Design: describes how Solr

> defines the fields and field types which Solr uses to organize data
> within the document files it indexes.
> * Understanding Analyzers, Tokenizers, and Filters: explains how
> Solr prepares text for indexing and searching. Analyzers parse text
> and produce a stream of tokens, lexical units used for indexing and
> searching. Tokenizers break field data down into tokens. Filters
> perform other transformational or selective work on token streams.
> * Indexing and Basic Data Operations: describes the indexing
> process and basic index operations, such as commit, optimize, and
> rollback.
> * Searching: presents an overview of the search process in Solr.
> It describes the main components used in searches, including request
> handlers, query parsers, and response writers. It lists the query
> parameters that can be passed to Solr, and it describes features
> such as boosting and faceting, which can be used to fine-tune search
> results.
> * The Well Configured Solr Instance: discusses performance tuning
> for Solr. It tells you how to configure multiple SolrCores, how to
> configure the Lucene index writer, and more.
> * Managing Solr: discusses important topics for running and
> monitoring Solr. It describes running Solr in the Apache Tomcat

> * Scaling and Distribution: tells you how to grow a Solr

> which are then distributed across multiple servers, or by
> replicating a single index across multiple services.
> * Client APIs: tells you how to access Solr through various
