Megan Carey commented on SOLR-15588: ------------------------------------ [~ctargett] Thanks for that context - I agree that this should be considered a stopgap (and I'm using it as such) until folks can upgrade to 9.0. I'll rephrase the description. > Implement random replica placement strategy > ------------------------------------------- > > Key: SOLR-15588 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-15588 > Project: Solr > Issue Type: New Feature > Security Level: Public(Default Security Level. Issues are Public) > Components: SolrCloud > Affects Versions: main (9.0), 8x > Reporter: Megan Carey > Priority: Minor > > While this might be particularly interesting to users of 8x, it can also be > made available in 9+: a replica placement strategy that randomly selects a > node in the cluster (as long as no other replicas of that shard already live > on that node). > This has proven to be a valuable strategy for my use case, as it allows for > really fast replica placement (-> fast collection creation, fast rebalancing, > etc.), but it does not explicitly respect Autoscaling policies, so should be > used wisely. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.3.4#803005) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: issues-unsubscr...@solr.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: issues-h...@solr.apache.org
