Paul Blanchaert created SOLR-8297: ------------------------------------- Summary: Allow join query over 2 sharded collections: enhance functionality and exception handling Key: SOLR-8297 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-8297 Project: Solr Issue Type: Improvement Components: SolrCloud Affects Versions: 5.3 Reporter: Paul Blanchaert
Enhancement based on SOLR-4905. New Jira issue raised as suggested by Mikhail Khludnev. A) exception handling: The exception "SolrCloud join: multiple shards not yet supported" thrown in the function findLocalReplicaForFromIndex of JoinQParserPlugin is not triggered correctly: In my use-case, I've a join on a facet.query and when my results are only found in 1 shard and the facet.query with the join is querying the last replica of the last slice, then the exception is not thrown. I believe it's better to verify the nr of slices when we want to verify the "multiple shards not yet supported" exception (so exception is thrown when zkController.getClusterState().getSlices(fromIndex).size()>1). B) functional enhancement: I would expect that there is no problem to perform a cross-core join over sharded collections when the following conditions are met: 1) both collections are sharded with the same replicationFactor and numShards 2) router.field of the collections is set to the same "key-field" (collection of "fromindex" has router.field = "from" field and collection joined to has router.field = "to" field) The router.field setup ensures that documents with the same "key-field" are routed to the same node. So the combination based on the "key-field" should always be available within the same node. >From a user perspective, I believe these assumptions seem to be a "normal" >use-case in the cross-core join in SolrCloud.
