Kilo is a bit old but the good news is that CPU pinning is available which IMHO is a must to run C* on Production.Of course your bottleneck will be shared HDDs. Best, Romain Le Mardi 27 décembre 2016 10h21, Shalom Sagges a écrit : Hi Romain,  Thanks for the input! We currently use the

Hi Romain, Thanks for the input! We currently use the Kilo release of Openstack. Are you aware of any known bugs/issues with this release? We definitely defined anti-affinity rules regarding spreading C* on different hosts. (I surely don't want to be woken up at night due to a failed host ;-) )

Hi Shalom, I assume you'll use KVM virtualization so pay attention to your stack at every level:- Nova e.g. CPU pinning, NUMA awareness if relevant, etc. Have a look to extra specs.- libvirt - KVM- QEMU You can also be interested by resources quota on other OpenStack VMs that will be colocated w

Hi Shalom, I don't see any reason why it wouldn't work, but obviously, any resource sharing affects performance. You can expect less degradation with SSD disks, I guess. Best regards, Vladimir Yudovin, Winguzone - Cloud Cassandra Hosting On Wed, 21 Dec 2016 13:31:22 -0500 Sh

Openstack and Cassandra

2016-12-21 Thread Shalom Sagges
Hi Everyone, I am looking into the option of deploying a Cassandra cluster on Openstack nodes instead of physical nodes due to resource management considerations. Does anyone has any insights regarding this? Can this combination work properly? Since the disks (HDDs) are part of one physical machi
