    I am working on a project where we considered Solis for the explicit purpose of performing a faceted search. With basic facets (i.e., single words) it seems like a good product, but not free. Also, our Facets were imported from Oracle UCM and were | delimited, which ruled out Solis.

    However, we were able to easily pull off the same functionality with out-of-the-box examine and without much processing overhead.

    In most cases, your facet is listed on the result as a custom property, so you:

    1. Get the results
    2. Loop through the results and create a unique list of the facet property
    3. Use that list to construct your facet list in your UI

    Once you have the list, you can easily create a condition to add a .Field or .GroupedOr to the Examine criteria that will query based on that facet value passed through the URL. (ex: /?term=searchTerm&facet=myFacet)
