Shalin Shekhar Mangar commented on SOLR-3755:
---------------------------------------------

bq. How do we know what collection? I assume there will be a "collection" 
parameter?

Yes, a collection param will also be present.

bq. shard.keys is currently used in routing request (and the values are often 
not shard names), so we probably shouldn't overload it here. After all, it may 
make sense in the future to be able to use shard.keys to specify which shard 
you want to split!

Yes! That is exactly the thinking behind shard.keys here. It is not being 
overloaded but used to indicate which shard to split by specifying the key 
which resolves to a shard name.

bq. Related: SOLR-4503 - we now have the capability to use restlet, and should 
consider doing so for new APIs like this.

I'm not familiar with restlet. I'll take a look at it.

> We can currently easily add replicas to handle increases in query volume, but 
> we should also add a way to add additional shards dynamically by splitting 
> existing shards.
