I am replying, but just to the users mailing list, as it’s not appropriate for dev@.
I think the short answer is that if you are already super into the Hadoop ecosystem, then you already have strong reasons why, and you can answer all of your questions listed already ;-). You then look at Solr on Hadoop as “hey, it works with what I am already doing” at my enterprise. If you aren’t already in the Hadoop ecosystem, then there isn’t any special Solr specific reason to go this way, and indeed many reasons NOT to. Hadoop isn’t for the faint of heart…. Not an answer per se…. > On Feb 23, 2023, at 5:57 AM, Zara Parst <edotserv...@gmail.com> wrote: > > Hi, > > I read at many places about using Hadoop in solrCloud.
