Description

Solr is open ended by design, and while that works for use cases where the owner and user of the Solr cluster are the same set of people, it quickly gets unmanageable when that’s not the case. As an example, there is no restriction on the core size or the number of fields that can be defined.

It would be very useful to have an extendible way to be able to control and limit the way Solr is used from a platform perspective. Not only would the owner of Solr cluster/service be happy this way, the users would also get a much better uptime.

This is an umbrella JIRA for a framework that allows for controlling access to Solr based on usage e.g.: core size, number of fields
