Hi to all,
the question is simple: is this project still alive?

Hi Roberto:

DataStax has incorporated Solr 4.0 into DataStax Enterprise (DSE) 2.0,
which was released on March 21, 2012. See: http://www.datastax.com/products/enterprise

I don't work for DataStax and cannot make any official statements
etc., but my guess is that Solandra will wither and die. But,
https://github.com/tjake/Solandra/commits/solandra does show activity
last month. Don't know what that means, buy my company has moved on
to work with DSE 2.0 to get Solr+Cassandra. I'm just getting started
with it, but it looks good so far.

Cheers,

Jeff

Hi,
an article explains the architecture of DSE 2.0 and the differences
from solandra:

I guess this has withered and died then? 

Is everyone now using DSE? I gave it a quick try but had some issues rolling back to the considered stable version at the time which i think was 0.8, not sure if this has changed yet, goin to give i another go.

Have been using DS Opscentre which has proved very cool for optimising schema's and caching etc.

Cheers

Sam

Yes, Solandra appears to be pretty dead. 

I switched to ElasticSearch as alternative for fast distributed searching. It also uses Lucene for indexing.
