Automated Indexing of Structured Scientific Metadata Using Apache Solr
Scientific datasets are continuously growing with the amount of raw data being collected worldwide. This amount of data poses the biggest challenge to web search engines on how to retrieve them efficiently. This paper discusses how major scientific data centers are using popular open-source search platforms such as Solr [1] to retrieve structured data stored in data sources such as relational database management systems using its import handler mechanisms [2]. Additionally, we will also focus on how we can configure Solr to serve advanced full-text, faceted search capabilities, along with its key features, which simplify representing and delivering better performance to the scientific search interfaces.
