This module differs from this one: Search API ET. It uses an alternative way of getting language aware search with entity translation: have one index per language. This has some drawbacks like scalability and site building usability. But when used with Solr as indexing backend, it allows to set a different configuration for each language (by declaring one Search API server per language, matching to a different Solr core). So that language aware autocompletion and stemming are made available. This especially makes sense if the website only has two or three languages.
