Hello, I need to compare the both solutions ElasticSearch and Solr, then choose one of them to integrate it on my webapp, so i'm using tomcat6 server and i installed/Configured Solr.war in my webapp without any probleme then i search to integrate ElasticSearch with tomcat i didn't find enough informations. so if some one know steps to do or know any other solution to my probleme, describe that step by step. thanks, regards, Anass BENJELLOUN -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "elasticsearch" group.

unlike SOLR , elasticsearch does not require a Java container, however you can always instantiate ES in embedded mode within your J2EE application. more details available here. > **[Elasticsearch Platform — Find real-time answers at scale](https://www.elastic.co)** > > Power insights and outcomes with the Elasticsearch Platform and AI.

I would be best to manage elasticsearch outside of tomcat and use the java or rest api to communicate with ES from within your app. If you absolutely must run ES within tomcat, have a look at the wares transport[1].
