As some of you know, I've been playing with HBase on/off for the past few months.
I'd like your take on some cluster setup/configuration setting that you’ve found successful. Also, any other thoughts on how I can persuade usage of HBase. Assume: Working with ~2 TB of data. A few very tall tables. Hadoop/HBase 0.20.0. 1. What specs should a master box have (speed, HD, RAM)? Should Slave boxes be different? 2. Recommended size of cluster? I realize this depends on what load/performance requirements we have, but I’d like to know your thoughts based on #1 specs. 3. Should zookeeper quorums run on different boxes than regionservers? Basically if you could give some example cluster configurations with the amount of data your working with that would be a lot of help (or point me to a place were this has been discussed for .20). Currently I don’t have the funds to play around with a lot of boxes, but I hope to soon. :) Thanks. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/HBase-in-a-real-world-application-tp24920888p24920888.html Sent from the HBase User mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
