While researching for Solr Caching options and interesting cases, I bumped on this https://github.com/dfdeshom/solr-redis-cache. Does anyone has any experience with this setup? Using Redis as Solr Cache.
I see a lot of advantage in having a distributed cache for solr. One solr node benefiting from the cache generated on another one would be beautiful. I see problems too. Performance wise, I don't know if it would be viable for Solr to write it's cache through the network on Redis Master node. And what about if I have Solr nodes with different index version looking at the same cache? IMO as long as Redis is useful, if it isn't to have a distributed cache, I think it's not possible to get better performance using it. -- Alexander Ramos Jardim
