Lucene does support reading N-1 index versions at the same time, and it should theoretically be feasible to enable writing for N-1 versions, though not concurrently. The software boots up with one index version, maintaining it throughout its runtime. This means that the software doesn't need to handle cases where the writer version is switched in memory but can perform all necessary checks at boot time. While this approach may involve high maintenance overhead for Lucene, I want to emphasize and understand the feasibility aspect better. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
