I added a brief description on CREATEALIAS here, feel free to tweak:

It's pretty simple - just as Brad said, it's just

http://localhost:8983/solr/admin/collections?action=CREATEALIAS&name=alias&collections=collection1,collection2,…

You also have action=DELETEALIAS

CREATEALIAS will create and update.

For update requests, you only want a 1to1 alias. For read requests, you can map 
1to1 or 1toN.

I've also started work on shard level aliases, but I've yet to get back to 
finishing it.

Thanks Mark for this great feature but I suggest you can update the wiki
too.
Yeah, I've stopped updating the wiki for a while now looking back - paralysis 
on how to handle versions (I didn't want to do the std 'this applies to 4.1', 
'this applied to 4.0' all over the page) and the current likely move to a new 
Confluence wiki with Docs based on documentation LucidWorks recently donated to 
the project.

That's all a lot of work away still I guess.

I'll try and add some basic doc for this to the SolrCloud wiki page soon.
