Inventory is now successfully running with Solr 8 in development space, https://inventory-dev-datagov.app.cloud.gov/dataset/

It is using the ssb-solrcloud broker and had no issues creating a Solr 8 cluster,

Upon relevant review and discussions, we can update Inventory to Solr 8 at any time.

I tried running a search-index-rebuild but there was no data in the DB. Good news is that it succeeded though haha..

We're going to hold off on deploying this change until catalog.data.gov is also on cloud.gov and we're less worried disturbing the static deployment of EKS that underpins it.

We have decided that while catalog has certain blockers, these aren't relevant for inventory. The security and other benefits from using a single stack are worth taking this work on now, instead of staying on solr 6.

@nickumia-reisys re-deployed to development workspace, and the system looks great. I tested searching on dataset title, description, email field, and publisher: all worked great. We will need to schedule around @hkdctol various showcases, and will want to deploy to staging manually to verify the re-sync will go fine as the next steps for this ticket.
