Hi, We're in the process of finalising the specification for our Solr cluster and just wanted to double check something: What is the major IO/write workload type in Solr? >From what I understand, the main workload appears to be largely sequential >appends to segments, rather than heavily biased towards random writes. Is that largely correct? The reason I'm asking is that we're looking at SSDs (primarily for read performance), but by having them in a RAID array we will lose TRIM support, which won't be as much of an issue if random writes are fairly low. Thanks, Phil.
