> (Please note that the feature described in LUCENE-2425 is required reading 
> for this issue.) 
> The sharding split policy builds on the remoting split policy, treating each 
> sub-index as a shard of the split index. Optionally, the super-index on which 
> the split writer is built may also be considered to be a shard. The 
> motivation for this policy is to allow a given index to be partitioned across 
> multiple nodes (that define a cluster), which helps to (a) load-balance 
> document writes across the nodes in that cluster and (b) serve search 
> requests from a (narrower) set of sub-indices (that the split rule routes the 
> query to).
> Unlike other sharding solutions for Lucene, this approach gives users the 
> ability to (a) pick and choose the types of directories underlying the 
> mirror, and (b) add/remove shards on the fly.
