Hi, I read at many places about using Hadoop in solrCloud. I try to find the reason why to use Hadoop in place of a local file system. Can someone briefly explain why to use Hadoop with SolrCloud when solr is just using Hadoop for indexing and storing logs in Hadoop. Is there any compelling reason to do that?
Is Hadoop having any advantage over the local file system with solr, since I can achieve cloud mod storing index in the local file system and can still use shard and replica. So my question is what advantage Hadoop will give me, does Hadoop do indexing fast, does Hadoop take less space to store index, is that distributed file system is better in Hadoop, like sharding, replication etc. Or does it take backup automatically? Please do answer this question as much as possible,
