An idea could be use autoscaling API in order to add a PULL replica for
each shard located in one or more low resource backup dedicated nodes in
separate hardware.
However, we need to exclude these "PULL backup replica" from searches.
Unfortunately, I am not aware of this possibility.
For better RPO, TLOG replica would be better, but it could become an NRT
replica.

So, may be one solution could be create a new BACKUP replica type with
these characteristics :

   - According to RPO, options at creation time : based on PULL or TLOG
   sync mode
   - Search disabled
