Play 1.3 and reliability

[ivanviragine]

Hello there!

Thanks for the module. I was wondering if it's safe to use this module in production with Play 1.3. I see that the module is somewhat abandoned, so, anyone has experiences to share?

Hi,

Besides being abandoned i've using this module for years, and now with play 1.4 and works fine, the main problem with it is that's based on lucene that's file based and not clusterizable, that means that the indexes are corrupted if two JVMs try to modify it at the same time.

The solution to this is solr, that's based on lucene, but is full clusterizable. In the play1 book of Alexander Rielsen one of the samples is the search module based on solr, take a look at that.
