Anshum Gupta commented on SOLR-4998:
------------------------------------
Here's my take on what I think these terms should refer to. Any feedback
suggestions would be great:
Slice: The higher level, logical representation.
Shard: The entity representing any physical index belonging to a Slice.
Collection has Slices
Slices have Shards
I'll take this up.
> Make the use of Slice and Shard consistent across the code and document base

> Key: SOLR-4998

> Project: Solr
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: SolrCloud
> Affects Versions: 4.3, 4.3.1
> Reporter: Anshum Gupta
>
> The interchangeable use of Slice and Shard is pretty confusing at times. We
> should define each separately and use the apt term whenever we do so.
