Hi Shawn, thanks for this response. We are probably going to take your suggested approach:
1. Upload a new configset to ZooKeeper. 2. Create a new collection using the new configset. 3. Index data into the new collection. 4. Set up an alias with the original collection name, pointing at the new collection. 5. When you're sure it's good, delete the old collection. I have a question about step 4. What is the actual mechanism for the aliasing? Is the alias something that would be defined in the schema.xml file, or are you speaking more generally about something that would be crafted in our application code or even like a sym link at the operating system level?
