如何在 Solr 中有多个 collections

Question

Hi I am new to Solr and I'm trying to get my bearings. Using Solr in my case might not be the best idea or might be a bit overkill but this is just for testing to see how to use it.

I would like to create a database which handles users posts and pages, in mongodb I would have created a collection for users, a collection for post and a collection for pages which would obviously contain the individual documents.

I don't know how would I be able to replicate that in Solr. I have created a core for users which I thought is like a collection in mongodb. To add a post on Pages, do I then create a new core for each or is there another way to separate the data?

Thank you for the advice

Yes you can have separate collection in solr as well. With the latest version of solr where you can use solr cloud and create multiple collections.

Each collection can handle a separate entity.
