Thanks William ! I'm really interested in any contention issues between the compute workload and the storage workload in converged nodes, and how folks who are doing this are managing that. On 3 September 2016 at 13:21, William Josefsson wrote: > Hi matt, the hardware depends on your workload re

Hi matt, the hardware depends on your workload requirements, especially when we are talking latency. I do Dell PE R630s for Controllers, and R730 for Compute/Ceph. The latter got 8x400G Intel S3610+18xHitachi 1.8T SAS. Depending on the workload sensitivity if you have DBs and long distance between

n one hack after another to keep it going. I hope to be able to re-architect our design at some point to de-converge Ceph from the compute nodes so that the two sides can evolve separately once more. From: matt.jar...@datacentred.co.uk Subject: Re:[Openstack-operators] Converged infrastructure
