             Summary: Modernize and standardize Solr APIs
                 Key: SOLR-8029
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-8029
             Project: Solr
          Issue Type: Improvement
    Affects Versions: 6.0
            Reporter: Noble Paul
            Assignee: Noble Paul
             Fix For: 6.0


Solr APIs have organically evolved and they are sometimes inconsistent with 
each other or not in sync with the widely followed conventions of HTTP 
protocol. Trying to make incremental changes to make them modern is like 
applying band-aid. So, we have done a complete rethink of what the APIs should 
be. The most notable aspects of the API are as follows:
The new set of APIs will be placed under a new path {{/solr2}}. The legacy APIs 
will continue to work under the {{/solr}} path as they used to and they will be 
eventually deprecated.
There are 3 types of requests in the new API 
* {{/solr2/<collection-name>/*}} : Operations on specific collections 
* {{/solr2/_cluster/*}} : Cluster-wide operations which are not specific to any 
collections. 
* {{/solr2/_node/*}} : Operations on the node receiving the request. This is 
the counter part of the core admin API

This will be released as part of a major release. Check the link given below 
for the full specification.  Your comments are welcome
