Hey folks,
I was wondering if anyone has a cassandra cluster running on a server setup
using blades, with a SAN appliance as the data file storage medium.
I would expect that there would be performance let-downs if the SAN was
connected with anything other than a fiber channel, but are there other
drawbacks? Imagine a system with something along the lines of 12 600G 10k
SAS drives in a single SAN, with a bunch of dual proc, quad core blades as
the hosts. I would think that we'd have the commitlog live on the blade's
internal drives would allow us to write data with sufficient throughput.
Anyone have any thoughts on a Blade v. Rackable solution for spinning up a
cassandra cluster?
