Sorry, hit send too fast.. picking up:
from the answer by Jayendra on the link, collections and cores are the same thing. Same is seconded by the config: <cores adminPath="/admin/cores" defaultCoreName="collection1" host="${host:}" hostPort="${jetty.port:8983}" hostContext="${hostContext:solr}" zkClientTimeout="${zkClientTimeout:15000}"> <core name="collection1" instanceDir="." /> </cores> we basically define cores. We have a plain {frontend_solr, shards} setup with solr 3.4 and were thinking of starting off with it initially in solr 4. In solr 4: can one get by without using collections = cores? We also don't plan on using SolrCloud at the moment. So from our standpoint the solr4 configuration looks more complicated, than that of solr 3.4. Are there any benefits of such a setup for non SolrCloud users?
