When you use Solr server, it becomes mandatory for you to manage your index data. In this section, we will learn about a few frequently used scripts which are hard to manage your data efficiently.
Let us assume a situation wherein you have a huge index which gets updated with a frequency of once a week. Of course, the frequency in which data gets updated is not high, on the other hand, the index gets too huge to fetch every time. To overcome such a situation and to avoid getting huge index built, we need to think of some solution, for instance, updating the index incrementally which is also termed script-based replication. Is Solr efficient enough to handle such a situation and to implement our solution of incremental indexing? Yes, of course! In this section, we will cover how to do it.
