 Introduction
 ------------
-Apache Solr is an open source enterprise search server based on the Apache Lucene Java
-search library, with XML/HTTP and JSON APIs, hit highlighting, faceted search,
-caching, replication, and a web administration interface. It runs in a Java
-servlet container such as Tomcat.
+Solr is the popular, blazing fast open source enterprise search platform from
+the Apache Lucene project. Its major features include powerful full-text
+search, hit highlighting, faceted search, dynamic clustering, database
+integration, and rich document (e.g., Word, PDF) handling. Solr is highly
+scalable, providing distributed search and index replication, and it powers the
+search and navigation features of many of the world's largest internet sites.
+
+Solr is written in Java and runs as a standalone full-text search server within
+a servlet container such as Tomcat. Solr uses the Lucene Java search library at
+its core for full-text indexing and search, and has REST-like HTTP/XML and JSON
+APIs that make it easy to use from virtually any programming language. Solr's
+powerful external configuration allows it to be tailored to almost any type of
+application without Java coding, and it has an extensive plugin architecture
+when more advanced customization is required.

+See README.txt and http://lucene.apache.org/solr for more information
+on how to get started.
