Show hitted documents in the same series together in Lucene - lucene

The are some articles are written in several parts,
for example, I got those articles from IBM developer works:
Distributed data processing with
Hadoop, Part 1:Getting started
Distributed data processing with
Hadoop, Part 2:Going further
Distributed data processing with
Hadoop, Part 3: Application
development
I will index those three articles separately. And some one search certain keywords, it is possible the part3 is on the top of hit whle part1 is on the 32th. Therefor, if I list results page by page, the part1 and part3 will display on different page.
How can I make sure the hitted documents in the same series displayed together?
I guess in SQL, we can use "group by".

I believe what you are asking for is Field Collapsing, which is currently a trunk feature in Solr, and will be incorporated into the next Solr version.
If you want to roll your own, One possible way to do this is:
Add a "series id" field to each document that is a member of a series. You will have to ensure that this gets incremented for every new series.
Make an initial query to Lucene, and get a hit list.
For each hit, check to see if it has a series id; If it does, make another query by the series id in order to retrieve all the members of the series.
An alternative is to store the ids of all the series members in a field inside each member's document.

How can I pull all work items currently or previously associated with a Sprint in Azure DevOps

I am attempting to retrieve all work items currently or previously associated with a given Iteration from Azure DevOps, either through an in-system query or through the API. I need this information to calculate sprint predictability metrics.
As far as I can tell, ADO only stores the latest Iteration in the work items fields, so the API call to ask for tickets associated with a Past iteration does not include any tickets that may have been moved to a different iteration mid-sprint. Likewise, they query options do not allow for something like a "was" operator to test for work items with may have met the criteria in the past.
Short of pulling each work item history individually through the API and creating my own iteration timeline for all tickets in the system, how can I get this information?
Take a look at this. You have to use the "was ever" operator in the iteration path. To do so, you have to query for it using the WIQL-Syntax.
So you'll have to add
...
AND (
EVER (
[System.IterationPath] = #currentIteration('[YourTeam]\... <id:...>'))
to the WHERE part of the query.

What kind of dynamic content is available in Eloqua?

In Eloqua, can you send out an email to a contact list but version the "hero" image headline for each segment using dynamic content blocks?
And then can you do the reverse, have the main image remain the same, and dynamically populate products below that they've purchased in the past?
For scenario 1, yes that is possible out of the box.
Scenario 2 however is a bit more complicated and would generally require a 3rd party tool to provide this type of dynamic code generation based upon a lookup table (in this case a line item inventory or purchases). Because a contact could have zero or more products (commonly as individual records in a CDO), you would generally need to aggregate or count the number of related records, and then generate your HTML table and formatting around those record values, and be contextually aware if it is the first or last record (to begin and close the table). Dynamic content does not have mathematical functions and would not be able to count those related records - this is something usually provided by a B2C system like SFMC using ampscript or dynamically generated through custom code and sent through a transactional SMTP service. You could have multiple dynamic content on top of each other, but your biggest limitation becomes the field merge, with only lets you select a record based upon earliest/last creation date, or last modified. This is not suitable if you have more than 2 records. A third party service that provides a cloud content module for your email is your best bet.

How to fetch data for a news feed like system?

I have few tables as shown below
Polls
PollId Question Option
1 What 1
2 Why 4
Updates
UpdateId Text
1 Sleep
2 Play
Polls and updates are just two sample tables (In reality there are more tables like ,photos, videos,links etc). But when a user visit his home (like facebook new feed) he must be displayed with data relevant to him (no such data included in this example). ie I want to select data from all tables with less number of query executions. (ie, I want to present a mixture of datas, ie polls, photos, videos etc )
Currently, I'm fetching only ids and type (ie which table) from all of the tables and gather further data while iterating through this resultset. (ie from c# calling another SqlQuery) .
Is there a way to query the data from whole tables at once? (OUTER JOIN?, UNION?)
Or simply,
How can I select different type of entities at once in a single sql Query?
You could write your query so that you have one long select list for everything you want and it all comes back in one result set but I suspect that wouldn't work too well because you might have varying numbers of different types of items per user.
If you really must have it all in one hit then you can issue multiple queries in one go and get multiple result sets back. To handle this you can use an ADO.Net DataSet. See this SO example (but not the accepted answer - see Vikram Dibyal's answer as that gives a very basic overview of what I think you're asking for).
I won't copy and paste the stuff from the linked thread, just head over and take a look.

Build a Kibana Histogram with buckets dynamically created by ElasticSearch terms aggregation

I want to be able to combine the functionality of the Kibana Terms Graph (be able to create buckets based on uniqueness of values from a particular attribute) and Histogram Graph (separate data into buckets based on queries and then illustrate the date based on time).
Overall, I want to create a Histogram, but I only want to create the Histogram based on the results of one query, not multiple queries like it's being done in the Kibana demo app. Instead, I want each bucket to be dynamically created per unique value of my particular field. For example, consider the following data returned by my query:
{"myValueType": "New York"}
{"myValueType": "New York"}
{"myValueType": "New York"}
{"myValueType": "San Francisco"}
{"myValueType": "San Francisco"}
Also assume that each record has a timestamp field for separating histogram data by date. For that particular date, I want the data to be communicated as a count of 3 into the New York bucket and a count of 2 into the San Francisco bucket. However, I am only able to show a count of 5 for my one linked query. When I configure the Histogram, I am able to specify a field to use for my timestamp, but not to create buckets from. I could've sent a field to compute a total/min/max/mean, but this field would've had to be numeric, so that is not the solution either.
If I were to use a Term Graph to create a pie or bar graph, I am indeed able to separate my data into buckets based on the unique values of my specified field (in this case, "myValueType"), but this would total up the data for all-time, not split up the data by timestamp. Although this is good information to know, it is not ideal because I wouldn't be able to detect trends in my data.
I am looking for a solution that will do one of the following:
Let me dynamically create queries in my Kibana dash board to create "buckets" in a Histogram
Allow me to run an ElasticSearch Terms Aggregation to supposidly split up my data into buckets based on "myValueType" and integrate these results into my Histogram
Customize the JSON of my dashboard, but this doesn't look possible to me
Create my own custom panel, but this is not desirable
Link a Kibana "TopN" query in Kibana. Actually, this has proven to be a work-around for my problem because the TopN query dynamically created one query per unique value/term from the specified fieldName. However, the problem is that I can only link one colour to this TopN query and each unique term will be placed in a bucket that uses a different shade of the colour. Ideally, every bucket in my Histogram will have a completely different colour associated to it. Imagine how difficult it will be to distinguish unique terms as the number of buckets grows.
If all else fails, I make one query per unique value from my search field. This will allow me to have one unique colour per bucket, but as the number of unique terms in the "myValueType" field changes, I need to keep adding/removing queries from Kibana, which can get quite messy.
I'm sure there is someting that I am missing here. Please help me out. Many thanks.
A highly related SOF question: Is it Possible to Use Histogram Facet or Its Curl Response in Kibana
This would be a great feature. It looks like it will be supported in Kibana4, but there doesn't seem to be much more info out there than that.
For reference: https://github.com/elasticsearch/kibana/issues/1249
Maybe a little late but it is actually possible in the newest BETA release.

Apache SOLR search by category

I am using apache-solr-1.4.1 and jdk1.6.0_14.
I have the following scenario.
I have 3 categories of data indexed in SOLR i.e. CITIES, STATES, COUNTRIES.
When I query data from SOLR I need the search result from SOLR based on the following criteria:
In a single query to SOLR I need data fetched from SOLR grouped by each category with a predefined results count for each category.
How can I specify this condition in SOLR?
I have tried to use SOLR Field Collapsing feature, but I am not able to get the desired output from SOLR.
Please suggest.
My solution is not exactly what you have asked but is my take on what SOLR does best, which is full text search. Instead of grouping the results by "category", I'd suggest you order the results by relevance score but also provide a facet count for the category values. In my experience users expect a "search" to behave like Google, with the best matches at the top. Deviating form this norm confuses the user in most cases.
If you want exactly as you have asked (actual results grouped by category) then you could use a relational database and do a group_by or write a custom function query with SOLR (I cannot advise on this as I've never done it).
More info: index the data with the appropriate fields, e.g. name, population, etc. But also add a field called "category", which would have a value of either CITIES, STATES or COUNTRIES. Then perform a standard SOLR search, which will return results in order of relevance - i.e. best matches at the top. As part of the request, you can specify a facet.field=category, which will return counts for the search results for each of the given categories (in the "facet" results section). In the UI you can then create links for each category facet which performs the original search plus &fq=category:CITIES, etc., thus restricting results to just that category. See the facetting overview on the SOLR wiki for more info.
