[hibernate-dev] Hibernate Search on Heroku / MongoDB

[Sanne Grinovero]

It seems it might be desirable for Heroku users to have a MongoDB
Directory for Lucene:

We're not far off from having a solution by using Guillaume's
contribution to Infinispan to a MongoDB enabled CacheStore: we use
Infinispan's Lucene Directory implementation, so that it benefit from
in-VM caching, and have it persist to a MongoDB backend for the slow
and long term.

What we should do is to make it trivial to setup: I don't expect the
average Heroku user to want to dive into the Infinispan manuals.

Any takers? I can help with the Infinispan configuration, and hope
Guillaume can as well as author of the CacheStore, but we likely need
a Heroku user to try it all out.
