Otis,

I believe I found the thread which contains a link about elasticsearch and big data.

http://www.elasticsearch.org/videos/2012/06/05/big-data-search-and-analytics.html

We are dealing with data that is searched using time ranges. Does the "time" data flow concept work in SOLR? Does it mean I can be adding shards to the existing collection and have it just work? If this concept is more readily used in Elasticsearch, I have no problem with using that instead of SOLR. We need to be able to maintain searches across shards whatever the case may be.

Thanks for your time,
Nate

Correct.  There was a good thread on this topic on the ElasticSearch ML.
Search for "oversharding" and my name. Same ideas apply to SolrCloud.
Neither server offer automatic rebalancing yet, though ES lets you move
shards around on demand.

Otis,

Thanks for that makes sense.  I have one more question: at this point the
only way for future expansion of shard count is by having more than one
shard per machine and then, when things grow, moving each shard to its own
dedicated machine?  That is how I understand it from the wiki.

So for instance I could have 10 shards where 2 machines have 5 shards
each.  Then I could move those shards to their own machines as the index
grows.  Is this correct?  Does it apply to replicas as well (5 per 2
replica machines)?

Finally being able to add more shards is something on the feature list?

Regards,
Nate

Hi,

Check the archive for a similar Q&A yesterday.  Reindexing would be the
cleanest.

  Hi all,
I have one machine running solr 3.6.  I would like to move this data to
solr 4.0 and set up a solrcloud.

I feel like I should replicate the existing data.  After that, it isn't
clear to me what I need to do.

1) Create a slave (4.0) that replicates from the master (3.6).
2) Somehow turn the slave into a part of a solrcloud?

If there are any online articles about this process or you have any
suggestions, I would appreciate it!

Thanks,
Nate
