I dont know from Cordova but a former employer bet the far on Solr without evaluating in any way. When I tried a search for solr sucks I got 600,000 hits. No one ever answered my questions on stackoverflow.

Solr and Cordova are on different realms, I don't see how that's relevant in this discussion. FWIW I've used Solr a lot and it's great for faceting and geometric search.

  they are both apache projects. I have used many apache codebases, all the others were excellent. ai expect my former employer chose solr because of thevapache foundation's great reputation. I looked forward to using it and so was completely dumbfounded by its poor quality.

I searched for solr sucks and got 20k hits. Not here to defend solr specifically, but every tool has trade offs. Solr is popular and there is a lot of documentation, so it is not a bad choice for a document search database. Now, picking solr without understanding a document database and its tradeoffs is a problem, but not solrs.
