Indeed it does run very happily on ARM. We have three of the Mars 400 appliances from Ambedded and they work exceedingly well. 8 micro servers per chassis. 1 is a MON server and the rest are OSD (or other services). Each micro server is running CentOS 7 and ceph so real easy to maintain. And each chassis is only 105W IIRC. -- *Kevin Thorpe* VP of Enterprise Platform *W* *|* www.predictx.com *P * *|* +44 (0)20 3005 6750 <+44%2020%203005%206750> | +44 (0)808 204 0344 <+44%20808%20204%200344> *A* *|* 7th Floor, 52 Grosvenor Gardens, London SW1W 0AU <https://maps.google.com/?q=7th+Floor,+52+Grosvenor+Gardens,+London+SW1W+0AU&entry=gmail&source=g> <http://twitter.com/predictxai> <https://www.linkedin.com/company/1339603/> _________________________________________________________ This email and any files transmitted with it are confidential and intended solely for the use of the individual or entity to whom they are addressed.
