dear all,
I have 4 servers to realize the "block storage" for my OpenStack .
Which topology is the best to balance the three requirements in subject ?
For example , I can configure the nodes as a linked list , which allows me to have a good fault tolerance :
two non-adjacent nodes can fail without interrupting service, I spend half of the available space, but what about performance ?
Or if I try with dispersed volume in RAID5-like is it faster than a linked list (obviously I gain space, but a single node could fail) ?
Which kind of parameters do I need to considered for this problem ?
Can I apply the same ideas that apply to a hardware raid (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_RAID_levels) ?
Are there any other topologies that I can imagine with only 4 nodes (i.e. RAID10-like with dispersed volume) ?
BR
M.
