This means that if the Solr instance > / cluster is down I need to cache the requests e.g. in an ordered queue and > let them be processed out of the queue as soon as the instance / cluster > comes up again. > For this I was thinking to implementing a wrapping SolrServer which takes > the "root" SolrServer as a parameter and delegates all the requests to it > while it keeps a queue where all the (indexing) requests start going as > soon as one is failing due to a IO / Connection issue and that gets > continuously processed in order to pull requests out as soon as it's > possible to communicate again with the Solr instance / cluster. > I wonder then if there's any other approach you can think of to handle > this maybe leveraging existing stuff. > > Regards, > Tommaso >
