I think there is a product that speaks ZK api but stores everything in etcd :)
Also, you may want to check out https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/SOLR/SIP-18%3A+A+Solr+Kubernetes+Module+for+native+integration , an initiative that will let you use ConfigMaps for configSet files etc. I.e. somewhat more cloud native. And https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/SOLR/SIP-14+Embedded+Zookeeper, if it gains traction, will embed ZK in Solr processes, making it an implementation detail that the users dont need to manage separately.
