Thanks - I was unaware of Flume and will investigate it. It looks like it has specific features for replicating Solr data? Have you or has anyone on the list used it for this purpose? Thanks again, Darrel

I don't think a or b are very good options yet. Honestly, I think the best current bet is to use something like Apache Flume to send data to both data centers - it will handle retries and keeping things in sync and splitting the stream. Doesn't satisfy all use cases though. At some point, multi data center support will happen. I can't remember where ZooKeeper's support for it is at, but with that and some logic to favor nodes in your data center, that might be a viable route. - Mark
