Hi Shalin, Yes i want to achieve a logical separation of indexes for performance reason also else index size will keep on growing as i have 8 different entities. I am already partitioning all these entities to different servers also on which i will be doing search based on distributed search by solr using shards and collecting merged results from 3 different servers. You mentioned i wont achieve putting all partitions on the same box , why is that so?
While reading solr core it says solr core is used for different applications only.... My search on different entities is also a type of different applications theoritically .... Does solr provides any good support for index partitioning.
