Hi Solr Developers, Reaching out to inquire about the best practices for implementing a backup strategy in Solr Cloud. We recently migrated from Solr standalone (solr6.5) to Solr 8.10, where we have a collection with data divided among 8 shards using implicit routing. Until now, we have maintained the standalone solr as a backup in case something goes wrong on solr cloud (due to data corruption/ deletion, etc.). However, we now wish to discard the standalone Solr and fully transition to Solr Cloud. My concern is what would happen if the data in Solr Cloud were to become corrupted/ deleted, necessitating the replacement or reindexing of the entire dataset, which can be a time-consuming process. We aim to minimize downtime as much as possible. I would greatly appreciate any insights or recommendations you could provide to address this concern.
Thank you in advance. Best regards, Saksham
