Business Requirement Document: Empty SOLR Index by Deleting All Jobs

Objective:

The objective of this project is to develop an API endpoint that deletes all jobs from a SOLR index. This endpoint will be used to reset or clear the job listings in the index.

Key Requirements:

1. Functionality:

   • The endpoint should delete all job listings from the SOLR index.
   • It should return the number of jobs deleted.
   • Optionally, it should also return the number of companies that had jobs deleted.

2. Error Handling:

   • The endpoint should handle errors gracefully, providing meaningful error messages to users.
   • Specific error handling should include scenarios where technical issues prevent job deletion from the SOLR index.

3. User Experience:

   • The endpoint should respond quickly to ensure a seamless user experience.
   • The response should include clear messages indicating whether the deletion was successful and the number of jobs deleted.

4. Data Integrity:

   • Ensure that all job data is removed from the SOLR index.
   • The endpoint should not affect other data in the index.

5. Security:

   • Implement appropriate security measures to protect user data and prevent unauthorized access to the SOLR index.

6. Scalability:

   • The endpoint should be designed to handle a high volume of requests without impacting performance.

Acceptance Criteria:

• The endpoint successfully deletes all jobs from the SOLR index.
• The endpoint returns the correct number of jobs deleted.
• If requested, the endpoint includes the correct number of companies that had jobs deleted.
• Error messages are clear and informative for users.
• The endpoint responds within an acceptable time frame.

Assumptions and Dependencies:

• The SOLR index is properly configured and populated with job data.
• Necessary infrastructure and resources are available to support the endpoint.

Risks and Mitigation Strategies:

• Risk: Technical issues with the SOLR index could prevent job deletion.

  • Mitigation: Regularly monitor the SOLR index for errors and perform maintenance as needed.

• Risk: High traffic could impact performance.

  • Mitigation: Implement load balancing and optimize server resources to handle increased traffic.

• Risk: Unauthorized access could lead to data breaches.

  • Mitigation: Implement robust security measures, including authentication and authorization checks.
