Hi Mark,
Have you shared with the community all the weaknesses of solrcloud you
have in mind and the advice to overcome that?
Apparently you wrote most of that code and your feedback would be
helpful for community.
Regards

I’d also like to say the last 5 years of my life have been spent being paid
to upgrade Solr systems. I’ve made a lot of doing this.
As I said from the start - take this for what it’s worst. For his guys it’s
not worth much. That’s cool.
And it’s a little inside joke that I’ll be back :) I joke a

I’ve worked in Lucene since 2006 and have an insane amount of the code foot

contributions?

Solr stand-alone is and has been very capable. People are working around
I’m young here I think, not even 40 and only been using solr since like 2008 or
so, so like 1.4 give or take. But I know a really good therapist if you want to
talk about it.

Now I have sacrificed to give you a new chance. A little for my community.
It was my community. But it was mostly for me. The developer I started as
would kick my ass today. Circumstances and luck has brought money to our
project. And it has corrupted our process, our community, and our code.

It’s going to haunt me if I don’t bring up Hossman. I don’t feel I have to

He is a treasure that doesn’t spend much time on SolrCloud and has checked
out of leadership for the large part for reasons I won’t argue with.
Why doesn’t he do much with SolrCloud in a real
I’m including this response to a private email because it’s not something

Yes. That is our biggest advantage. Being Apache. Almost no one seems to be
employed to help other contributors get their work in at the right level,
and all the money has ensured the end of the hobbyist. I hope that changes
too.
Thanks for the note.

The people I have identified that I have the most faith in to lead the
fixing of Solr are Ishan, Noble and David. I encourage you all to look at
and follow and join in their leadership.
You can do this.

Hey Mark,
I was actually expecting (and wanting) this after your LinkedIn post.
At this point, the best way to use Solr is as it’s always been - avoid
> SolrCloud and setup your own system in standalone mode.
That's what I have been telling people who are just getting started with
Solr and
Now one company thinks I’m after them because they were the main source of
the jokes.
Companies is not a typo.
If you are using Solr to make or save tons of money or run your business
and you employee developers, please include yourself in this list.
You are taking and in my opinion Solr is
I’m a big fan of master/slave Solr. Super robust and trivial to scale-out.
Solr Cloud has been useful for managing sharding and replicas, but less robust
than I would like. Also less robust than my managers would like. It has gotten
a bad reputation, only partially undeserved.
I’m also not
If SolrCloud worked well I’d still agree both options are very valid
depending on your use case. As it is, I’m embarrassed that people give me
any credit for this. I’m here to try and delight users and I have failed in
that. I tried to put a lot of my own time to address things outside of
working
Personally I found nothing in solr cloud worth changing from standalone
for, and just added more complications, more servers, and required becoming
an expert/knowledgeable in zoo keeper, id rather spend my time developing
than becoming a systems administrator

This is your queue to come and make your jokes with your name attached. I’m
sure the Solr users will appreciate them more than I do. I can’t laugh at
this situation because I take production code seriously.

And if you are a developer, enjoy that Gradle build! It was the highlight
of my year.

If you have a SolrCloud installation that is somehow working for you,
personally I would never upgrade. The software is getting progressively
more unstable every release.
I wrote most of the core of SolrCloud in a prototype fashion many, many
years ago. Only Yonik’s isolated work is solid and
17 matches
