Description

Expected Behavior

Apache Tika can be run as a convenience server, this gives more wiggle room to install language support and share and instance, have less weight in the calling app etc.

It would be nice with a spring-AI implementation which do remote calls instead of using embedded-mode.

Current Behavior

Runs embedded tika.
