Hello All, Upon reading the article
http://www.lucidimagination.com/Community/Hear-from-the-Experts/Articles/Scaling-Lucene-and-Solr I have a question around index replication. If the query load is very high and I want multiple severs to be able to search the index. Can multiple servers share one read-only copy of the index? so one server (Master) builds the index and it is stored on a SAN. Then multiple Slave servers point to the same copy of the data and answer user queries. In the replication diagram, I see that the index is being copied on each of the Slave servers. This is not desirable because index is read-only (for the slave servers, because only master updates the index) and copying of indexes can take very long (depending on index size) and can unnecessarily waste disk space. -- View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/Question-on-Index-Replication-tp27590418p27590418.html Sent from the Solr - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
