[jira] [Commented] (SOLR-5045) Aggregating Collectors and AggregatorComponent

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-5045?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13711705#comment-13711705 ] 

Jack Krupansky commented on SOLR-5045:
--------------------------------------

I need some help understanding what features this component would provide to a user of Solr. In particular, what forms of "aggregation" would it perform or be capable of performing? Like, "aggregation" of what?

> This ticket provides a pluggable aggregation framework through the introduction of a new *Aggregator* interface and a new search component called the *AggregatorComponent*.
> The *Aggregator* interface extends the PostFilter interface providing methods that allow DelegatingCollectors to perform aggregation at collect time. Aggregators were designed to play nicely with the CollapsingQParserPlugin introduced in SOLR-5027. 
> The *AggregatorComponent* manages the output and distributed merging of aggregate results.
> This ticket is an alternate design to SOLR-4465 which had the same basic idea but a very different implementation. This implementation resolves the caching issues in SOLR-4465 and combined with SOLR-5027 plays nicely with field collapsing. It is also much less intrusive on the core code as it's entirely implemented with plugins.
