Re: hybrid approach to using cloud servers for Solr/Lucene
Not sure if it's a good argument, but cost is the reason. By keeping the base implementation in a permanent, local instance, cost is supposed to be less.

Everything is doable, but this sounds a bit undefined and possibly messy. If flexibility is of such importance, why have the local part at all? Why not have everything in an elastic cloud environment?

Re: hybrid approach to using cloud servers for Solr/Lucene
Hello Dennis If the load goes up, then queries are sent to the cloud at a certain point. My advice is to do load balancing between local and cloud. Your local system seems to be capable as it is a dedicated host. Another option is to do indexing in local and sync it with cloud. Cloud will be only used for search. Hope it helps.
