Confused about installing Apache Solr This is pretty embarrassing but I gotta start somewhere, right? This concerns about installing Apache Solr.

I've seen the instructions when trying to install Apache Solr and each one starts off with installing Java. I'm confused since I'm using Bluehost for webhosting (http://drupal.org/hosting). Does that mean I need to install Java on my server? There's also the thing about the terminal but I've never seen the terminal in my hosting's Cpanel. Help.

Edit: By terminal does that mean SSH? Because I can have that enabled in cPanel. It would be nice if there were a simple tutorial for cPanel's users like me. :-)
Yet that's true. If you want to use apachesolr for your own you have to run a java server.

Alternative there are some services which you can pay to host apachesolr for you.
