Solr Index
The eBook Search uses a dedicated Solr index. Within the Solr index, each instance has its own Solr core. The Solr index is build and updated using the following two sources of information:
- the SFX databases (both global and local)
- the monograph RSI (for activation information)
Before the Solr index can be used, Solr should be up and running in the SFX installation, and a Solr core should exist for the global instance and each local instance where the eBook Search will be used.
