             Summary: Implement index aliasing
                 Key: SOLR-4237
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-4237
             Project: Solr
          Issue Type: New Feature
            Reporter: Otis Gospodnetic
             Fix For: 4.2


This is handy for searching log indices and in all other situations where 
indices are added (and possibly deleted) over time.  Index aliasing allows one 
to map an arbitrary set of indices to an alias and avoid needing to change the 
search application to point it to new indices.

See http://search-lucene.com/m/YBn4w1UAbEB

It may also be worth thinking about using aliases when indexing.  This question 
comes up once in a while on the ElasticSearch mailing list for example.
