Has anyone experience with custom Lucene sharding / paritioning using Hibernate Search?
The documentation of Hibernate Search says the following about Lucene Sharding :
In some cases, it is necessary to split (shard) the indexing data of a given entity type into several Lucene indexes. This solution is not recommended unless there is a pressing need because by default, searches will be slower as all shards have to be opened for a single search. In other words don t do it until you have problems :)
Has anyone implemented sharding in such a way for Hibernate Search that also queries can be target to one of the shards?
In our case we have Lucene queries that should target only one shard per query.
