haproxy is a common tool used to load balance. We use it load-balance (round-robin) a 32-node cluster.

When I install a SolrCloud-Cluster with several nodes, how do you connect to any of them to do the job? Do you install some kind of proxy in front of the nodes? Or do you ask zookeeper for an endpoint of a known node which is up? Do you try to connect round robin (a timeout on a not-up node could last too long)? What is the best practice for SolrCloud? Best regards Andreas
