Hi Lee, Solr was installed on a different server that doesn't run anything else so we can tweak the resources independently of what the web server needs. But I don't see a reason why this workaround wouldn't work with a Solr install on the same server.
The subdomain isn't tied to Solr in any way. All our Solr knows is that it's listening on 1.2.3.4 on its default port 8983 (and the network team made sure only our own servers can reach it). It's nginx that's listening for requests on the subdomain on port 443. You can let nginx proxy those requests to 127.0.0.1:8983 instead of a different server. If Solr only accepts connections on 127.0.0.1, external clients can only connect through the proxy with whatever authentication you set up there. Of course this doesn't prevent a client on the same server (e.g. running under another Plesk subscription) from connecting directly to 127.0.0.1 as well and bypassing that authentication.
