What this tutorial is about
We are going to setup an architecture combining the Big-Data computing framework Apache Spark with a sharded Apache Solr-Cloud. After that we will learn how to start Spark tasks from Java without Spark having any knowledge of the task itself.For that purpose we will install three virtual machines using VirtualBox.
The following image briefly illustrates our goal.
