NOTES
1.Class TechProductDocument represents a document in Solr collection and to be easy to identitify this, I call this class with the same name of the Solr collection (techproducts) but you can choose any name what you want, just remember, extends Document class;
2.To example purposes, I set collection address in hard code.
