Question

Name different types of highlighters in Apache Solr?

Answer 1

There are 3 highlighters in Solr:

• Standard Highlighter: provides precise matches even for advanced queryparsers.
• FastVector Highlighter: Though less advanced than Standard Highlighter, it works better for more languages and supports Unicode breakiterators.
• Postings Highlighter: Much more precise, efficient and compact than the above vector one but inappropriate for a more number of query terms.
