Re: Building a petabyte cluster from scratch

Hi,

You will get slow performance: EC is slow, HDD are slow too

With 400 iops per device, you get 89600 iops for the whole cluster, raw
With 8+3EC, each logical write is mapped to 11 physical writes
You get only 8145 write IOPS (is my math correct ?), which I find very
low for a PB storage

So, use flash-based storage, or at least not EC (which is for cold storage)

Nothing troublesome here

Cache tiering is not recommended
You will not be able to manage this cache (managing which content needs
to be cached), thus degrading performances

If you buy hardware, get 25Gbps
