Grant Ingersoll commented on SOLR-1277:
---------------------------------------

Solr has up until 1.3 focused on query load and usability.   Then it added 
distributed support, which right now handles 95%+ of most large index cases 
without a problem.  With the addition of ZooKeeper and a few other pieces it 
will handle the other pieces as well it should handle the last 5% of large 
cases, thus combining usability with scale.  It can already do index size, but 
it just needs a bit better management and automation.  And yes, master 
failover, rack awareness, etc. are needed.

> The goal is to give Solr server clusters self-healing attributes
> where if a server fails, indexing and searching don't stop and
> all of the partitions remain searchable. For configuration, the
> ability to centrally deploy a new configuration without servers
> going offline.
> We can start with basic failover and start from there?
> Features:
> * Automatic failover (i.e. when a server fails, clients stop
> trying to index to or search it)
> * Centralized configuration management (i.e. new solrconfig.xml
> or schema.xml propagates to a live Solr cluster)
> * Optionally allow shards of a partition to be moved to another
> server (i.e. if a server gets hot, move the hot segments out to
> cooler servers). Ideally we'd have a way to detect hot segments
> and move them seamlessly. With NRT this becomes somewhat more
> difficult but not impossible?
