[jira] [Commented] (SOLR-6399) Implement unloadCollection in the
Collections API
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-6399?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16729865#comment-16729865 ]
Gus Heck commented on SOLR-6399:
--------------------------------
This also seems like it would be useful for A/B testing schema configurations on the same hardware if "unloaded" truly meant no resources were consumed. Imagine one tries a change and it's worse not better. It would be nice to be able to delete the experiment and simply reload the old collection. If the change is good delete (or back up and archive) the old one... saves standing up extra hardware, or re-indexing or backup/restore of the old collection when the experiment fails. The bigger the cluster and the bigger the data set the more useful this is.

> There is currently no way to unload a collection without deleting its contents. There should be a way in the collections API to unload a collection and reload it later, as needed.
> A use case for this is the following: you store logs by day, with each day having its own collection. You are required to store up to 2 years of data, which adds up to 730 collections. Most of the time, you'll want to have 3 days of data loaded for search. Having just 3 collections loaded into memory, instead of 730 will make managing Solr easier.
