Amazon CloudSearch vs. Solr Cloud
BackgroundTo integrate cloud-based search into applications, there are several alternatives. Amazon CloudSearch is a fully-managed service in the AWS Cloud that makes it simple and cost-effective to set up, manage, and scale a search solution for a website or application. Apache Solr is an open-source search platform with a multi-node scaling capability, called Solr Cloud.
With Amazon CloudSearch, you can quickly add search capabilities to your website or application without having to become a search expert, or worry about hardware provisioning, setup, and maintenance. With a few clicks in the AWS Management Console, you can create a search domain and upload the data you want to make searchable. Amazon CloudSearch automatically provisions the required resources and deploys a highly tuned search index.
Apache Solr Cloud provides much the same search functionality as Amazon CloudSearch, but with a more hands-on need for managing resources and building code to do exactly what you want.
Both Amazon CloudSearch and Solr Cloud will automatically distribute index updates to the correct location, distribute searches across multiple search instances, and both provide replication and recovery; however it is how you get to that desired state and then manage & maintain it that is different.
