SFDUG – San Francisco Drupal Users group – Sept 1410 Sep
DrupalCon will be in San Francisco in April 2010!!
This is just great news for the Drupal Community, we start off this month with a presentation about how we really want to engage the local Drupal community and come together to help with the sponsorship / planning of this event.
This month we are going to look at Solr search and how its used to drive large content sites. Solr is a very powerful faceted search technology which integrates very well with Drupal.
First off we will have a Tech Session on Solr & Views Basics and then How to apply Solr & Views to a real site: the new MothersClick.
The technical session will be led by Scott Reynolds the maintainer of the Solr Views module which he has been working on. This module hooks Solr results into views. Scott will show us how this can be used on your web site.
For the Showcase site this month Theodore Serbinski Chief Technology Officer ParentsClick Network, a division of Lifetime Digital will do a case study of the new MotherClick web site, which is powered Drupal and Solr. This is a very high visibility site and we will learn why Solr was used and how the site was setup. He will also show off the way Solr Views is used in the site.
The session content is meant to really show is the power of Solr.
So please come on down and join us this is going to be a GREAT evening!!
