Sorry - just got back to this 1. We can standup the AWS resources quickly (~ 30 mins) but the process of repopulating the index is very slow (< 1k docs per second). We need to fix this but I¹m hoping to a backup solution would be a mitigation in the meantime.
2. Yes we have autoscaling (with a process to add replicas) if we lose an instance 3. The process you linked in the other reply that describes how to backup SolrCloud only works if you have one EBS instance - if you have multiple (one EBS instance for each SolrCloud VM) then you have the challenge of making sure the EBS nodes are backed up from the exact same time (otherwise you might risk some corruption of indexes - as they are captured at slightly different times) -Frank Frank Kelly Principal Software Engineer AAA Identity Profile Team (SCBE / CDA) HERE 5 Wayside Rd, Burlington, MA 01803, USA 42° 29' 7" N 71° 11' 32" W <http://360.here.com/> <https://www.twitter.com/here> <https://www.facebook.com/here> <https://www.linkedin.com/company/heremaps> <https://www.instagram.com/here/> On 2/8/18, 4:00 PM, "John Bickerstaff" <j...@johnbickerstaff.com> wrote: >Hmmm... > >Can you (fairly quickly) reproduce this AWS environment (including the >indexes)?
