Solr has included an installer script for quite some time (since 5.0, I think) that works on many OSes that are not Windows. It has had the most testing on Linux, which I think is what an AWS instance will typically be running. Configuring the service is mostly done with the /etc/default/solr.in.sh file. Getting help on this list is going to be a lot easier if you use the installer included with Solr. For help with the bitnami image, your best bet would be bitnami. They're going to know how they have customized the software. Thanks, Shawn

Also shameless self-promotion, but my company (Fogbeam Labs) is about to launch a Solr / ManifoldCF powered Search-as-a-Service offering. If you'd like to learn more, shoot me an email at prho...@fogbeam.com and I'd be happy to give you the skinny.

Although this is shameless promotion, but have you taken a look at SearchStax (https://www.searchstax.com)? Why not use a Solr-as-a-Service?

Re: Bitnami, or other Solr on AWS recommendations?
I guess I'd say test with the image - especially if you're deploying a larger number of Solr boxes. We do a lot of them where I work and (unfortunately, for reasons I won't bother you with) can't use an image. The time it takes to install solr is noticeable when we deploy Solr on our 100 plus EC2 instances. Of course, if you need to customize Solr or the Solr Server in any way, you can make your own by hand and then build an image from that for use as a base.

Bitnami, or other Solr on AWS recommendations?
If I want to deploy Solr on AWS, do people recommend using the prepackaged Bitnami Solr image? Or is it better to install Solr manually on a computer instance? Or are there a better way? TK
