SOLR-2355 is definitely a step in the right direction but something I would like to get clarified: a) There were some fixes to it that went on the 3.4 3.5 branch based on the comments section ... are they not available or not needed on 4.x trunk? b) Does this basic implementation distribute

BTW I update the wiki with the following, hope it keeps it simpel for others starting out: Example B: Simple two shard cluster with shard replicas Note: This setup leverages copy/paste to setup 2 cores per shard and distributed searches validate a succesful completion of this example/exercise.

Thanks Pulkit! I'd actually been meaning to add the post.jar commands needed to index a doc to each shard to the wiki. Waiting till I streamline a few things though. - Mark On Sep 30, 2011, at 12:35 PM, Pulkit Singhal wrote: BTW I update the wiki with the following, hope it keeps it simpel

That was kinda my point. The new cloud implementation is not about replication, nor should it be. But rather about horizontal scalability where nodes manage different parts of a unified index. One of the design goals of the new cloud implementation is for this to happen more or less

2011/9/29 Yury Kats yuryk...@yahoo.com: True, but there is a big gap between goals and current state. Right now, there is distributed search, but not distributed indexing or auto-sharding, or auto-replication. So if you want to use the SolrCloud now (as many of us do), you need do a number of

@Darren: I feel that the question itself is misleading. Creating shards is meant to separate out the data ... not keep the exact same copy of it. I think the two node setup that was attempted by Sam mislead him and us into thinking that configuring two nodes which are to be named shard1 ...

Hi all I'm a relatively new solr user, and recently I discovered the interesting solr cloud feature. I have some basic questions: (please excuse me if I get the terminologies wrong) - from my understanding, this is still a work in progress. How mature is it? Is there any estimate on the official
