Agree with Walter. I personally really like the master slave set up for my use cases. David J. Hastings | Lead Developer dhasti...@wshein.com | 716.882.2600 x 176 William S.

Cloud is very useful if you shard or need near real-time indexing. For non-sharded, non real time collections, I really like master/slave.

to cloud or not to cloud
Hi, We are considering a move to solr 7.x my question is Must we use cloud? We currently do not and all is well. It seems all work is done referencing cloud implementations. We have solr 4.3.0 master/slave 14 servers RHEL 32 core 96 gb ram 7 shards one replica per shard Total index is 333Gb around 47.5 GB per server. APX 2million docs per shard -- Jeff Courtade M: 240.507.6116
