Lily - the Scalable NoSQL Content Repository

What is Lily?

Lily is the first cloud-scalable NoSQL-based content store and search repository, built on top of Apache HBase and SOLR. It is made available under the Apache license by Outerthought.  We've got a write-up on the rationale behind Lily, and its ties to our companion product Daisy, on our corporate website.

Project documentation can be found here.

You can also take a look at the following HBase add-ons:

• HBase indexes: a library for managing secondary indexes in HBase
• HBase RowLog: a facility to build WALs and queues backed by HBase

Who's behind this?

Outerthought is an experienced open source content application provider. Lily builds further upon 6 years of Daisy experience. We're based in Zwijnaarde near Ghent, Belgium. We're currently on the lookout for partnerships based upon Lily and looking for vertical domain experts in large-scale document/content management solutions.
