Francisco and Jason, EDS is very affordable and, for early stage companies where cash flow is especially critical, the EnterpriseDS for Startups program (http://www.basho.com/startups.html) makes it even more so. Happy to discuss off-list with anyone who is interested. Dean -- Dean Cookson VP

Make sure you set ulimit -n before starting Riak. A value of 1024 or larger is recommended (on OS/X the default is 256). Example: $ ulimit -a core file size (blocks, -c) 0 data seg size (kbytes, -d) unlimited file size (blocks, -f) unlimited max locked memory

I've run into a problem with Riak on my development machine, and I can't quite sort out what's happening. I've tried stopping the riak processes and restarting it back up again, but it will not service any requests. Has anyone seen this before? $ curl -v -X POST http://riak:8098/riak/test -d'

I imagine that if you can afford clusters in multiple datacenters then you should be able to afford EnterpriseDS. Or is it prohibitively expensive? I have no idea. But afaics that's Basho's revenue model. Francisco 2010/10/5 Jason J. W. Williams : > Maybe the community can come up with a solut

Andrew, The best way to do what you describe is to have a cluster in each datacenter with the multi-cluster replication feature from the EnterpriseDS version of Riak running between them. Replication will automatically propagate writes in both directions and will give you the local access perfo

Hi Andrew, Distribution in Riak is based on the concept of the vnode (virtual node). The vnode is the unit of measure in reference to "N" replicas. At the time of cluster creation there is some upper limit of vnodes in a cluster. The number of vnodes a pnode (physical node) owns is based
