I wonder what happens if one would run a Riak cluster on 5/10/15+ EC2 micro (or small) Linux machines behind Elastic Load Balance? Do you think it would perform well enough for a web site with moderate traffic. Idea is having many many "small" machines rather than couple of "big" machines.
Anyone has any experience with something similar? Thanks, Gibraltar On Aug 30, 2012, at 5:09 PM, Sean Carey <ca...@basho.com> wrote: > Matt, > Haproxy is my load balancer of choice.
