Question
You configure a SharePoint Server 2010 Service Pack 1 (SP1) server farm. The farm contains a single Search service Application that has two index servers. The search index contains 3 million documents that reside on the SharePoint farm and 2 million documents that reside on a network file server named fileserver1. You attach a content database that contains 8 million documents. You make sites from the database accessible on your farm. You grant Read permissions to anonymous users to read all the content on these sites. You need to improve the performance of the search. You also need to ensure that users can search the contents of the entire SharePoint farm from a single SearchCenter site. What should you do?

Explanation
In Microsoft SharePoint Server 2010 Search, index partitions are groups of query components, each of which holds a subset of the full text index and which return search results to the query originator. Each index partition is associated with a specific property database containing metadata associated with a specific set of crawled content. You can distribute the load of query servicing by adding index partitions to a Search Service Application and placing their query components on different farm servers. You can decide which servers in a farm will service queries by creating a query component on that server. If you want to balance the load of servicing queries across multiple farm servers, add query components to an index partition and associate them with the servers you want to service queries. See Add or remove a query component for more information.
