Shard and Replicas in Lucene
Hi
I have an Lucene.NET implementation with as a prototype that I need to
rework. It seems to me that Lucene.NET is not up to date (last commit
Jan 13) and seems to use Lucene 3.0.3.
My major issue is that I scaling was not considered at design time, but
needs to be done now. Lucene does not support shards and replicas (but
solr can) - at least from my first impression.
My current alternatives for scaling seem to look like this:
- Move to Solar cloud, abandon the current implementation
- Create a shard/replica mechanism for Lucene
Any ideas? Thanks!
Marc

Lucene is not about scaling out, its just a search engine library. You
should be using SolrCloud or ElasticSearch - the latter has a very good
.NET client library called NEST you can use

Hi
I think as well using SolrCloud or ElasticSearch is a better choice. All our other components run in .Net on Azure with Windows. Even that Azure enables now any Linux OS I would prefer Windows OS for production due to more knowlege available in our team. What are the reasons to prefer Linux over Windows for SolrCloud you have in mind?
Many thanks,
Marc

Hi,
You'd be much better off switching over to SolrCloud. You could use an
existing dot net client library (such as SolrNet) to connect to SolrCloud.
The other bit to keep in mind is that for production you should ideally be
running SolrCloud on a *nix (Linux/ Unix) OS.
Regards,
Aloke
