No the current setup is in total 1100 IOPS! You have 44 disks each doing 100 IOPS = 4400 IOPS You have RAID10 which effectively halves the write speed = 2200 IOPS You have a replication factor of 2 in Ceph which halves it again = 1100 IOPS I would not be a fan of a replication factor of 2 with NO raid. Chances that 2 disks in the cluster fail at the same time is significant and you will lose data. Replication of 3 would be the absolute minimum. For the suggested setup that would be: 40 * 175 = 7000 Rep factor of 3 / devide by three = 2300 IOPS So you effectively double the amount of writes you can do. Note that this is the total cluster performance. You will not get this from a single instance since the data would be needed to be written exactly spread across the cluster. In my experience it is "good enough" for some low writes instances but not for write intensive applications like Mysql. Cheers, Robert van Leeuwen |
