Arcadius Ahouansou commented on SOLR-8146:
------------------------------------------

Thank you very much [~noble.paul] for the clarification.

Looking at SOLR-6289, maybe there is an overlap between {{ip_2}} vs {{dc}} and 
{{ip_3}} vs {{rack}}?

> h2. Backgrouds
> Currently, the CloudSolrClient randomly picks a replica to query.
> This is done by shuffling the list of live URLs to query then, picking the 
> first item from the list.
> This ticket is to allow more flexibility and control to some extend which 
> URLs will be picked up for queries.
> Note that this is for queries only and would not affect update/delete/admin 
> operations.
> h2. Implementation
> The current patch uses regex pattern and moves to the top of the list of URLs 
> only those matching the given regex specified by the system property 
> {code}solr.preferredQueryNodePattern{code}
> Initially, I thought it may be good to have Solr nodes tagged with a string 
> pattern (snitch?) and use that pattern for matching the URLs.
> Any comment, recommendation or feedback would be appreciated.
> h2. Use Cases
> There are many cases where the ability to choose the node where queries go 
> can be very handy:
> h3. Special node for manual user queries and analytics
> One may have a SolrCLoud cluster where every node host the same set of 
> collections with:  
> - multiple large SolrCLoud nodes (L) used for production apps and 
> - have 1 small node (S) in the same cluster with less ram/cpu used only for 
> manual user queries, data export and other production issue investigation.
> This ticket would allow to configure the applications using SolrJ to query 
> only the (L) nodes
> This use case is similar to the one described in SOLR-5501 raised by [~manuel 
> lenormand]
> h3. Minimizing network traffic
>  
> For simplicity, let's say that we have  a SolrSloud cluster deployed on 2 (or 
> N) separate racks: rack1 and rack2.
> On each rack, we have a set of SolrCloud VMs as well as a couple of client 
> VMs querying solr using SolrJ.
> All solr nodes are identical and have the same number of collections.
> What we would like to achieve is:
> - clients on rack1 will by preference query only SolrCloud nodes on rack1, 
> and 
> - clients on rack2 will by preference query only SolrCloud nodes on rack2.
> - Cross-rack read will happen if and only if one of the racks has no 
> available Solr node to serve a request.
> In other words, we want read operations to be local to a rack whenever 
> possible.
> Note that write/update/delete/admin operations should not be affected.
> Note that in our use case, we have a cross DC deployment. So, replace 
> rack1/rack2 by DC1/DC2
> Any comment would be very appreciated.
> Thanks.
