Lucene indexer vs. DB index
Can anyone tell me the advantages of Lucene indexer for indexing data
located in a database or LDAP server over creating another index in the
database or from an LDAP console?
There got to be some for indexing database records but I can't see them?
Any light out there?

If your database or LDAP server gives you all the indexing you
need, with good enough performance, perhaps you don't need Lucene.
But I'm not aware of any databases that give you full text
indexing to match the power of Lucene.
