What is Lucene used for in ThingWorx?

What is Lucene used for in ThingWorx?

So I'm learning to tune ThingWorx server. I'm noticing the indexing directory in ThingWorxStorage/data is growing quickly with lucene.log files.

  1. I know Lucene is a Log Indexing system, but how's it used in ThingWorx?
  2. What is the proper way to clean up/maintenance Lucene?
  3. Where's the settings for the Lucene service kept in ThingWorx? How (and to what extent) should it be configured?

Lucene indeed creates indexes for Thingworx to quickly find information.

I do not know if any management tools are exposed for this, I don't think they are.

So how do prevent Lucene from generating GB of log files and overwhelming the storage on the machine?
