Hi ,
Trying to place multiple smaller indexes in one collection (as we read
solrcloud performance degrades as number of collections increase). We are
exploring two ways
1) Placing each index on a single shard of a collection
In this case placing documents for a single index is manual and
automatic rebalancing not done by solr
2) Solr routing composite router with a prefix .
In this case solr doesn’t place all the docs with same prefix in one
shard , so searches becomes distributed. But shard rebalancing is taken
care by solr.
We did a small perf test with both these set up. We saw the performance for
the first case (placing an index explicitly on a shard ) is better.
Has anyone done anything similar. Can you please share your experience.
Thanks,
Raji
