The main drivers to move to SC are: data volume that requires sharding NRT requirements that cannot be met with MS model FT requirements - with MS you have SPOF - master node that can prevent updates, but if you NRT requirements are not strict and can tolerate longer periods without updates, this can be ignored > 2.

Like mentioned above, SolrCloud have replication handlers enabled, so you can have some hybrid model, but it will not make your system simpler. > > Thanks, > Gopesh Sharma >
