Trying to figure out how many solr queries we do per day or hour, since some solr heroku add-ons are metered requests… I’m not sure we’re logging the right stuff and am not sure I’m interpreting the logs right, but I am going to say somewhere under 10K requests per day.
update: I don’t think that was right. looking at production app logs, and all requests for /catalog , /focus , or /collection pages (each of which triggers a solr query), on Tuesday November 17th… we get around 35K requests for the day. This is maybe a subset of all solr requests, but gives us an order of magnitude for now?
We’d basically have to spend a bunch of time figuring out/changing our logging to be able ot really answer this question (this is why we want to get out of sysadmin business!)
Heroku Estimate
There is one plugin for Solr available on heroku marketplace, from third-party vendor “WebSolr”. The “Standard Small” plan seems to be sufficient for us.
