Re^2: Design Question - I've gone object mad!

I'm hearing this a lot, but I'm not aware of DBIx::Class being able to send queries to Solr, for example.

There are a lot of alternative storage/index/search engines around and we don't want to be tied to using a database.

As I've said, the model I'm working on is above any db layer.

I'm not aware of DBIx::Class being able to send queries to Solr, for example It looks like it does to me: DBIx::Class::Indexer::WebService::Solr Even if it dosen't do exactly what you want, personally I'd rather take that and modify it to get it to do what I want instead of start from scratch. As I've said, the model I'm working on is above any db layer. Its your project so you know and I don't, but since you're here asking for advice I'll give it: DBIx::Class works above the db layer. From here it looks like you are reinventing wheels instead of figuring out how to add in hooks to existing frameworks.	[reply]

Cheers for that, I'll certainly be taking a look to see if it'll work for what we need. Time to learn DBIx::Class fully now :)	[reply]
