Varun Thacker created SOLR-9239:
-----------------------------------
Summary: Deprecate backup/restore via replication handler in
favour of an equvalent core admin api
Key: SOLR-9239
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-9239
Project: Solr
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Varun Thacker
Priority: Minor
In SOLR-5750 we added core backup/restore hooks via the core admin API . This
was done at the time to leverage the backup/restore code from the cloud classes
. A discussion on why we have two ways for core backup/restore came up in
SOLR-7374 .
Currently we document core backup/restore only via the replication handler. I
think we should move in favour of it being a core admin operations. Here are
some of the reasons why I think thats a good idea :
- SolrCloud backup/restore is implemented as a collection api. The logical
equivalent of it for standalone should be core admin and not replication
handler .
- More importantly core admin supports async calls. So using the backup/restore
api will be a lot cleaner. We don't need a separate backup/ restore status API
.
