Hi, Drupal can talk to a SolrCloud cluster the same way it talks to a standalone Solr server, i.e. by using the Search API suite https://www.drupal.org/project/search_api
You will have to create the collection yourself on Solr though (Drupal will not do it for you). If you want to take advantage of SolrCloud's fault tolerance capabilities then you may have to: * either use an external load balancer in front of your SolrCloud cluster * or implement a smart client in Drupal -- I opened this ticket some time ago https://www.drupal.org/project/search_api_solr/issues/2858645 On Mon, Dec 11, 2017 at 7:48 AM, Per Qvindesland <p...@me.com> wrote: > Hi All > > I have a solr cloud with zookeeper 3.4.10 and solr 5.4.1, i on 3 centos 7 > instances in AWS, I intend to use the cluster for Drupal 7 search. > > At the moment we have 2 instances running in production with each having > their own solr installation (no cloud) but I would like to improve the > redundancy and maybe even the performance, I followed > http://www.francelabs.com/blog/tutorial-deploying- > solrcloud-6-on-amazon-ec2/ to get the cloud up and running but I need > some guidance on how to add in a new shard/collection so I can point the > drupal instances to the new solr cloud, does anyone have any information on > how to do this? as you can see i have no experience with solr cloud :) > > Regards > Per > > > >
