: I am wondering if having an EmbeddedServer and regular Servlet running : on the same solr_home, using the former to add to the index and the : latter to query it, makes sense as a server setup.
having two instances of Solr pointed at the same solr home (regardless of wether one is Embeddedor or not) should generally work ok as long as only one ever writes to hte index -- but it's not something that's generally recommended. using some form of replication (even if you rae using Embedded Solr you cna still use teh script based replication) tends to be safer. -Hoss
