ThriftDB a new service from the Octopart Guys
We actually use Solr on our backend - we love it's open source community and rich feature set.

Sheer curiosity - why did you decide to go with solr instead of elastic search which seems easier to scale out, with much the same feature set?

That is a great question - we actually didn't consider using elastic search, we went with Solr because we use it for Octopart and are experienced with it so it made developing ThriftDB easier. We're evaluating other options now and will have a look.
