The document discusses SOLR and how it can optimize search for organizations. It states that 65% of IT organizations were able to reduce the costs of developing and deploying search applications by 50% or more by using SOLR. It also notes that 43% of organizations index or update over 1,000,001 documents per week with SOLR. One company was able to decrease risk by allowing over 6 million items and 50 million user profiles to be searched beyond what was possible with MySQL.

When APM came to the forefront five or so years ago, we all thought we’d finally found the answer to our visibility challenges. Almost every organization implemented some form of APM. The truth is these solutions, for the most part, delivered. APM today is doing exactly what it’s supposed to be doing. But it is still not enough.
APM has fallen short in two separate areas. One is not addressing the multitude of data – in addition to the metrics gathered by APM solutions – that must be analyzed to determine application health. The second is the failure to predict the global shift from an ITIL-based IT Ops strategy to a DevOps/Application Support structure; from silos of information to a merged architecture where everyone has access to the data and views they need.
APM is now just a piece of an end-to-end visibility and control solution.
In this webinar, Rodney Morrison, SL's VP of Products, discussed the disillusionment of APM, and did a walk-through of several use cases of companies who are leading the way to the new era of end-to-end visibility and control of their critical applications and infrastructure.
Learn how these companies are able to:
• See only the events that matter to them with enough context to show why they matter
• Provide access to end-to-end, time-correlated monitoring metrics for faster troubleshooting
• Enable custom, real-time holistic views of application configuration, dependencies and data flows for more intuitive understanding of application performance
• Automate manual processes such health checks and stop and start scripts to work faster and reduce errors
Real-Time Coherence Monitoring in Integrated EnvironmentsSL Corporation
In this presentation, Everett Williams, SL’s Oracle Coherence Expert, discusses problems with analyzing host metrics and Oracle Coherence metrics within a cluster using the current tool sets. He also discusses how to integrate statistics to solve problems that relate between the two in an integrated and intelligent manner. Users of SL’s Oracle Coherence Monitor can address these issues and understand if their Coherence issues are related to issues within the underlying hardware, or whether they reside somewhere else.

MOSA webinar: Small Cell Networks: Lessons LearnedWi-Fi 360
We would like to invite you to an exclusive webinar entitled 'Small Cell Networks: Lessons Learned', presented by Maravedis-Rethink and featuring our guest speaker Jim Parker, Senior Manager of the Antenna Solutions Group at AT&T, one of the world's most advanced deployers of small cells.
Mr Parker's team is responsible for in-building solutions including small cells, DAS and others, and is a vital element of AT&T's ambitious plan to roll out 40,000 small cells over two years. The first phase of that roll-out is currently taking place, and the webinar will feature some of the earliest insights into the progress of the program, and the lessons learned so far.
With operators round the world formulating their strategies for small cell deployments over the coming years, AT&T's experiences will be eagerly watched. The webinar will offer a unique opportunity to hear about the achievements and challenges so far, and to gain insights into AT&T's future plans in this important area of 3G and 4G roll-out.
Topics will include technology platforms for small cells; neutral hosting; the challenges of the indoor environment; and interworking with other technologies such as Wi-Fi, with an eye to the future HetNet.
These insights will be complemented by key findings from Maravedis-Rethink's MOSA (Mobile Operator Strategy Analysis) and RAN Service analysts. MOSA tracks the top 100 4G operators and their business strategies, and has a per-carrier analysis of small cell deployment plans, among other topics. Meanwhile, the RAN Service tracks worldwide roll-outs of all types of carrier infrastructure, with granular five-year forecasts in areas including metrocells and DAS.
In the webinar, Research Director Caroline Gabriel will share selected highlights from the latest MOSA Quarterly Report and RAN forecasts, including exclusive data in areas such as enterprise wireless and LTE-Advanced.
Continuous Delivery seeks to deliver increased Business Agility by releasing smaller releases more frequently. For a development team, this may mean shorter sprints or a switch to Kanban. But what about the PMO, testing teams, and release management? To truly leverage Continuous Delivery, enterprises must consider impacts that span functional silos.

Similar to Start Your Search Engines: Optimizing Solr to Improve Results (20)
• Complex migration and integration projects are a backbone of our company• ExactTarget Gold Partner with full integration between ExactTarget and Magento• We’ve built e-commerce sites ground up, handled complicated product catalog migrations for large B2B companies, and integrated email, ecommerce, digital experience, and business analytic solutions for B2C retail companies.
For the next hour we will be speaking about the integrations of Solr and Magento and making the setup work best for your ecommerce site.Today we are going to go over more advanced topics such as:Basic Troubleshooting-Useful Solr tools and Common problems and solutions.Advanced optimization of search results.-Making changes in Solr configuration to better your results. In the previous presentation we covered modifications direclty in Magento. Today we will be covering changes done to Solr.Improving search speed-Optimizing Magento to improve search.
Solr is an open source enterprise search platform from the Apache Lucene project. Its major features include powerful full-text search, hit highlighting, faceted search, dynamic clustering, database integration, and rich document handling.Magento Enterprise integrates with Solr right out of the box.
We did a more in depth introduction of Solr September of 2011. You can watch the full video by going to the URL displayed or by going to Magento's webinar section on their website. It covers setup, indexing, and fine tuning search results through Magento.
So now let us go over useful Solr tools and Common problems and solutions.
Web Interface (5 minutes)Schema fileIf you make file changes you can confirm Solr has loaded them by looking for them in this file.Show config fileIf you make file changes you can confirm Solr has loaded them by looking for them in this file.Schema BrowserNumber of docs in the indexActual indexed fields and some statistics about them.Ping URLThe URL used to test if Solr is running properly.Solr StatsRequest handlers used and other high level stats and configurations.readDir pathLuke (5 minutes)Lucene Index BrowserTokenized terms for searchCommand Line (5 minutes)Show logs during indexShow logs during query
Do you have the right URL and port?For example the default port for Tomcat for 8080 and Jetty is 8983.Show test button.What the button actually does.Ping URL to Solr and the response.PHP Setting to fix it and why. (90% of the time it's fixed by this.)
What the problem is…Bad data, Solr not committing changes.Final commit vs Partial commit.How to diagnose this issue. (Tailing the log look for rollback)It tells which product ID has critical error.
Direct configuration changes in Solr to better suite you business needs.There are two different types of settings in Solr: Query time and Index time.Query time settings are settings that take effect when a Query is ran. These do not require a reindex of data.Index time settings are used during index, if a change is made to index time setting then you must reindex to see the changes take place.
When dealing with queries there are 3 types of "clauses" that Lucene knows about: mandatory, prohibited, and 'optional' (aka: "SHOULD") By default all words or phrases specified in the "q" param are treated as "optional" clauses unless they are preceeded by a "+" or a "-". When dealing with these "optional" clauses, the "mm" option makes it possible to say that a certain minimum number of those clauses must match (mm). Specifying this minimum number can be done in complex ways, equating to ideas like... At least 2 of the optional clauses must match, regardless of how many clauses there are: "2"At least 75% of the optional clauses must match, rounded down: "75%" If there are less than 3 optional clauses, they all must match; if there are 3 or more, then 75% must match, rounded up: "2<-25%" If there are less than 3 optional clauses, they all must match; for 3 to 5 clauses, one less than the number of clauses must match, for 6 or more clauses, 80% must match, rounded down: "2<-1 5<80%"This is modified in the query time configuration file solrconfig.xmlThis setting is language specific.No reindex will be needed
Perhaps there will be a situation when products will need to be promoted in your search or boosted. With Solr's "Boost Query" parameter this can easily be accomplished.This is modified in the query time configuration file solrconfig.xmlThis setting is language specific.No reindex will be needed
How Magento and Solr Work together-First of all it's not Solr it's Magento-Solr returns product IDs not data. Magento does the data grabber
Checking query time logging for the "Q" time in milliseconds.Solr optimization that we do not have time to cover here. Go to: http://wiki.apache.org/solr/SolrPerformanceFactors
Make sure you have the most recent version of MySQLMake sure your MySQL settings are tuned per Magento's recommendations.Use the Memory (HEAP) storage engine for temp tables.Leverage MySQL query caching as recommended by Magento.
