[Solr Wiki] Trivial Update of "DistributedSearch" by YonikSeeley
Dear Wiki user,
You have subscribed to a wiki page or wiki category on "Solr Wiki" for change notification.
The following page has been changed by YonikSeeley:
http://wiki.apache.org/solr/DistributedSearch
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The current components that support distributed search are
* The Query component that returns documents matching a query
- * The Facet component, for facet.query and facet.field requests where facet.sorted=true (the default)
+ * The Facet component, for facet.query and facet.field requests where facets are sorted by count (the default). Solr 1.4 and later also support sorting by name.
* The Highlighting component
* the Debug component

* When duplicate doc IDs are received, Solr chooses the first doc and discards subsequent ones
* No distributed idf (see http://wunderwood.org/most_casual_observer/2007/04/progressive_reranking.html )
* Doesn't support !QueryElevationComponent
- * Doesn't support consistency between stages, e.g. a shard index can be changed between STAGE_EXECUTE_QUERY and STAGE_GET_FIELDS
+ * The index could change between stages, e.g. a document that matched a query and was subsequently changed may no longer match but will still be retrieved.
* Doesn't currently support date faceting
- * Currently only supports sorted field facets
+ * Currently only supports sorted field facets (Solr 1.4+ supports both)
=== Distributed Deadlock ===
Each shard may also serve top-level query requests and then make sub-requests to all of the other shards.
