I’m an engineer, open source enthusiast, and the creator of Apache Solr.

I’m also a co-founder of LucidWorks, an Apache Lucene committer and PMC member, an Apache Software Foundation member, and author of various other little things such as Noggit, the fastest streaming JSON parser for Java.

Solr is an open source search and analytics server. If you need a blazing fast search platform that provides tons of features such as faceted search (those category counts you see on shopping sites), real-time analytics, or highly scalable distributed search, check out Solr!
