If data/index is in your core's directory and actually contains a complete index, then Solr will load that index for that core on startup. If the way you handle commits is insufficient, then there is a possibility that the most recent updates to the source index are sitting in memory and haven't been written to the on-disk index, but it seems unlikely that this would result in a completely empty index.
