See the documentation for the [[https://github.com/MSOpenTech/Windows-Azure-Solr|Solr Installer for Windows Azure]] for information about how to deploy Solr/Lucene on Windows Azure web roles and worker roles, using multi-instance replication for index-serving and single-instance for index generation with a persistent index mounted in Azure storage.

- Solr can be run on Windows Azure. See the tutorial [[http://www.interoperabilitybridges.com/Azure/Getting_Started_Guide_Solr_Lucene.asp|Getting Started with Solr/Lucene on Windows Azure]] for an example of how to configure and host Solr/Lucene in Windows Azure using multi-instance replication for index-serving and single-instance for index generation with a persistent index mounted in Azure storage.

- The tutorial explains how to install the Windows Azure SDK and create a Windows Azure subscription and storage account, with links to installation instructions for the Java JRE and Solr/Lucene. After the prerequisites are handled, the tutorial covers how to install and deploy a sample Windows Azure Solr/Lucene project hosted on [[https://github.com/Microsoft-Interop/Windows-Azure-Solr/tags|Github]].
  
  Typical scenarios addressed with this sample are commercial and publisher sites that need to scale traffic with increasing query volume and need to index a maximum of 16 TB of data requiring a small number of index updates per day.
