Do you just have one instance of Solr then? Because with Solr Cloud, replication is automatic and the zk will handle which node (leader) the data is retrieved from. For Load Balancing, Solr Cloud has a basic Round Robin LB Server which is wrapped by the CloudSolrServer. So if you use the CloudSolrServer, you will get some basic OOB load balancing.

And each core is dedicated to a particular client. Like If we search data from SiteA, it will provide search result from CoreA And if we search data from SiteB, it will provide search result from CoreB and similar case with other client. We have created N number of core on Single node of Solr server. My query is that does solr cloud will be helpful in case of load balancing. As in my case all request for different-different client came to single node of server. Any pointer and link will be helpfull. Note: I am Using Windows machine for deplyment of Solr. Thanks, Dharmendra jaiswal
