We’re hoping the project continues (there are lots of great use cases for Elasticsearch in bioinformatics) and we get a chance to continue to update the plugin.

It will also be much simpler to write.

The number of external calls varies depending on whether you’re using OLS or an OWL file as your ontology source, but for OLS there are several calls made per document.

The annotation is a snapshot of the ontology at the time the document was indexed, so there’s no way of tracking updates. It seems, at least for the BioSolr project, that data is re-indexed quite frequently so this is less of an issue there than it may be otherwise.

How do changes to the ontology get to the document? Are 4 external calls being made (per URL) for each document indexed?

I know rivers are no longer supported but was unaware that plugins weren’t – Marvel and Attachment mapper are common ones. That said keeping pace with api changes to libraries is hard work.

Essentially that there was no equivalent to solr update request parser. Sounds as if that philosophy is paying dividends.
