[jira] [Commented] (SOLR-15209) Make the AffinityPlacementFactory the default placement plugin

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-15209?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=17433886#comment-17433886 ] 

Jan Høydahl commented on SOLR-15209:
------------------------------------

I'm adding this to the 9.0 blocker list, since changing defaults in 9.x would be sub optimal.

Are you planning to construct a PR for the latest proposal, Ilan?

> Currently there's a lot of code in {{Assign}} dealing with the fact that we still support the old "legacy" replica assignment as well as the new plugin-based placement strategies.
> Furthermore, the "legacy" assignment is now the default even though it's neither robust nor optimal, except in the very simple and small clusters. Also, providing another plugin-based placement as the default impl. runs into a small complication - in the absence of any plugin config the code reverts to the "legacy".
> In order to promote the adoption of the new plugin-based placements we should make the {{AffinityPlacementFactory}} the new default placement strategy, selected when the explicit configuration is missing (and then create it as a default configuration in {{PlacementPluginFactoryLoader}}).
> I propose to re-package the "legacy" strategy as a {{PlacementPluginFactory}} so that it can be configured in the same way as other placement plugins.
