Uhm. Dude are you drinking?

1. Lucidworks would never say that.=20
2. Maria is not a json +MySQL. Maria is a fork of the last open source versi=
on of MySQL before oracle bought them=20
3.walter is 100% correct. Solr is search. The only complex data structure it=
 has is an array. Something like mongo can do arrays hashes arrays of hashes=
 etc, it's actually json based. But it can't search well as a search engine c=
an.=20

There is no one tool. Use each for their own abilities.=20
