Commercial Support for Solr

Need help with a new Solr project?

If you're considering incorporating Solr into your website and/or web application but don't have the internal expertise to do so, I might be able to help you out by:

  • Mentoring and training your team in Solr
  • Architecting the search stack
  • Tweaking relevance and weighting algorithms
  • Implementing spatial search solutions
  • Other custom Solr search solutions

Need help with an existing Solr project?

If you already have Solr running on a production system, but need help with maintenance and/or support, I can help:

  • Improve performance and scalability
  • Perform code audits, annual health checks etc

This would also include quick troubleshooting of performance, index corruption and recovery, sudden failures or errors and other unforeseen issues that production systems tend to encounter.

What my clients think of my Solr-related work

Kelvin is an extremely productive thinker with deep domain knowledge in search technology. His swiftness, combined with a commitment to complete tasks on a very short deadline ensured that our project was accelerated by months. I would unequivocally recommend him to anyone undergoing a project related to search technology.

All for Good hired Kelvin to review and make several enhancements to our current Solr based search platform. I thoroughly vetted Kelvin's skills before deciding to work with him so I was not surprised by his expert level knowledge of Solr (especially geospatial search) and the general technical knowledge that he brought to the project.

What was a pleasant surprise is how incredibly thorough, committed, and full of positive energy he is. Before wrapping up his work with us he made sure to fully document everything he had done and made sure we all were completely up to speed on it. He has outstanding technical skills, a great attitude, and excellent communication skills. Nice guy too. I highly recommend Kelvin.
