Can Sunspot/Solr work with different RequestHandlers for different Rails classes?

Question

I have one Rails app with two very different classes that are being indexed in Solr (using Sunspot). One is users and the other is a product catalog. There are specific RequestHandlers that I'd like to use for just the product catalog.

Do I set up two Solr instances with different config? If so, how do I point each class to the right instance?

Otherwise is there a way in Sunspot/Solr to tie a class or request to specific RequestHandlers?

Hi @Jayendra. I think that was the exact answer I was looking for!! You should post as an answer, not just a note. — NatGordon, May 31 '13 at 16:57

Sunspot does provide the ability to specify the handler, check link.
