Rick Kellogg commented on KNOX-528:
-----------------------------------

Good questions.  

Optimally we would like to continue to use the standard SOLRJ client (both 
binary and XML formats).  Not certain this is possible.  Apache Knox would just 
operate like an invisible proxy that hides the physical cluster configuration 
and provides security and logging.  

Another goal would be to allow federation of multiple SOLR clusters 
transparently behind a single endpoint.  Assume cores are distinct between 
clusters.  In our deployment we will have tens of thousands of cores in just a 
few years.  We do not necessarily need fine grained security at the core level 
but at least at the macro level.  Suggest we have a pluggable security module 
here so as to allow security at the SOLR cluster level or finer degree of 
control.  Will give security a bit more thought and try to contribute where I 
can.
