The IR services focus on the business logic, more accurately Information Retrieval. The IR family of services can be decomposed in three major categories: Search Framework, Index Management Framework and finally Distributed Information Retrieval Support Framework. Each framework is focused on a specific area of Information Retrieval, but works in synergy with services from the other two frameworks, as well as with services belonging to different subsystems, such as infrastructural ones, in order to provide a rich set of IR operations.
