No, you generally treat Solr like a database and provision it separately from you app. 30M docs may very well all fit nicely on one machine depending on some of your answers above (I've certainly seen bigger) > One for each hd?

I'd probably start simple and see what I can do in 1 instance of Solr and what query/indexing throughput you can get. -------------------------- Grant Ingersoll http://www.lucidimagination.com/ Search the Lucene ecosystem docs using Solr/Lucene: http://www.lucidimagination.com/search
