Personally I think it is better to be explicit about where you index, so that 
when you create a new shard "december", you also switch the URL for your 
indexing code.

I suppose one trick you could use is to have a core called "current", which now 
would be for november, and once you get to december, you create a "november" 
core, and do a SWAP between "current"<->"november". Then your new core would 
now be "current" and you don't need to change URLs on the index client side.
