Hi, I have a confusion over choosing Cores or Shards for the project scenario. My scenario is as follows I have three entities 1. Customers 2. Product Info 3. Listings [Contains all the listings posted by customer based on product]
I'm planning to design Solr structure for the above scenario like this 1. Customers Core 2. Product Info Core 3. Listings Core 4. Searchable Listing Core [Indexing searchable parameters selected from Listings, Product Info and Customer entities]. Having in mind that there wouldn't be much updates to Customers, Product Info. There will be regular updates to Listings that in turn I need to update Searchable listings that I could manage it. My Confusion is it feasible to choose many cores or use shards. I do not have much experience on how shards works and why they are used for. I would like to know the suggestions :-) for the design like this. What are the implications if I were to choose to use many cores and handle stuff at application level calling different cores.
