Building a scalable search engine with Apache Solr, Hibernate Shards and MySQL

We attended JavaZone this year and gave a one-hour talk on our experiences with Apache Solr, Hibernate Shards and MySQL as key components of a new engine for storing and searching data from Social Media at Integrasco.

You can download the slides from the presentation here and you can watch the recorded session over on Java.no (direct link to stream). Unfortunately the slides were not captured correctly and are therefore not available together with the video.

About Jaran Nilsen

I've been working as a lead developer at Integrasco AS since it's startup in 2004. My interests in software development are ranging from the lowest bit to design patterns and development methods. On a daily basis my main area of responsibility is data mining technology as well as a bit of team management. In addition to my work at Integrasco AS, I am also running an open source project called iTunes Agent over on Sourceforge, which provides non-iPod owners with a way to transfer music from iTunes to their media player.
