- based routing (i.e. when numShards=N is specified on collection
- creation).
- - Documents with ids sharing the same domain/prefix, e.g.
- 'customerB!', will be routed to the same shard, allowing for
- efficient querying. At query time, one can specify a "shard.keys"
- parameter that lists the domains, e.g. 'shard.keys=customerB!', and
- controls what shards the query is routed to.
- - Collections that do not specify numShards at collection creation
- time use custom sharding and default to the "implicit" router.
- Document updates received by a shard will be indexed to that shard,
- unless a "<em>shard</em>" parameter or document field names a different
- shard.</em> Short circuiting for distributed search if a request only needs
- to query a single shard.
-<em> Allow creating more than one shard per instance with the Collection
- API.
-</em> Allow access to the collections API through CloudSolrServer without

-<em> Collection API: Support for specifying a list of Solr addresses to
- spread a new collection across.
-</em> New and improved auto host detection strategy.
-* Numerous bug fixes and general hardening - it's recommended that all
- Solr 4.0 SolrCloud users upgrade to 4.1.</p>

-<blockquote>
-<p>http://wiki.apache.org/solr/SolrCloud</a>):
-<em> Simple multi-tenancy through enhanced document routing:
- - The "compositeId" router is the default for collections with hash
- based routing (i.e. when numShards=N is specified on collection
- creation).
- - Documents with ids sharing the same domain/prefix, e.g.
- 'customerB!', will be routed to the same shard, allowing for
- efficient querying. At query time, one can specify a "shard.keys"
- parameter that lists the domains, e.g. 'shard.keys=customerB!', and
- controls what shards the query is routed to.
- - Collections that do not specify numShards at collection creation
- time use custom sharding and default to the "implicit" router.
- Document updates received by a shard will be indexed to that shard,
- unless a "<em>shard</em>" parameter or document field names a different
- shard.</em> Short circuiting for distributed search if a request only needs
- to query a single shard.
-<em> Allow creating more than one shard per instance with the Collection
- API.
-</em> Allow access to the collections API through CloudSolrServer without
- referencing an existing collection.
-<em> Collection API: Support for specifying a list of Solr addresses to
- spread a new collection across.
-</em> New and improved auto host detection strategy.
-* Numerous bug fixes and general hardening - it's recommended that all
- Solr 4.0 SolrCloud users upgrade to 4.1.</p>
-</blockquote>
-<p>New features:
-<em> The majority of Solr's features, including replication, now work with
- custom Directory and DirectoryFactory implementations.
-</em> Indexed term offsets, specifiable via a 'storeOffsetsWithPositions'
- flag on field definitions in the schema. Useful for highlighters.
