Maintaining apps that depend on technologies you don't use for anything else is a pain, so I'd be inclined to avoid the overhead of learning something new for this project unless is a part of your long term objectives. For example, solr or postgres are both viable here, but those two applications are good for very different types of purposes. So if you use one of those, pick the one that will be the most useful down the road. kyle
