> The sharding split policy builds on the remoting split policy, treating each sub-index as a shard of the split index. Optionally, the super-index on which the split writer is built may also be considered to be a shard. The motivation for this policy is to allow a given index to be partitioned across multiple nodes (that define a cluster), which helps to (a) load-balance document writes across the nodes in that cluster and (b) serve search requests from a (narrower) set of sub-indices (that the split rule routes the query to).
> Unlike other sharding solutions for Lucene, this approach gives users the ability to (a) pick and choose the types of directories underlying the mirror, and (b) add/remove shards on the fly.
