Standalone Solr offers the admin UI and the ability to do some of your testing with hand-typed URLs in a browser. The embedded server is completely unreachable from anywhere but the java program that embeds it, and has no options for redundancy and high availability. The Java client implementations offer objects and methods that are very easy for a java developer to understand and write with a very small amount of code, and do not require any user code for building URLs or communicating over HTTP. If you were thinking about using EmbeddedSolrServer, you can use one of the other SolrServer (SolrClient in 5.0) implementations instead with a standalone Solr installation. The resulting client code will be nearly identical to what you'd use with EmbeddedSolrServer, because EmbeddedSolrServer is simply another implementation of the same abstract class and interfaces that are used by objects like HttpSolrServer and CloudSolrServer (Server is replaced by Client in 5.0).
