Alexey Serbin updated KUDU-2778: -------------------------------- Description: Currently, the recommended limit of Kudu masters in multi-master deployment is 3 (i.e. no more than 3 masters is recommended): https://github.com/apache/kudu/blob/branch-1.9.x/docs/known_issues.adoc#scale It would be nice to clarify whether there is anything substantial behind that limit. As of now the recommendation stems from the fact that all of our multi-master tests and tested deployments use 3 masters. Overall, being able to deploy 5 or more masters in case of bigger clusters makes sense from the HA perspective. was: Currently, the recommended limit of Kudu masters in multi-master deployment is by 3 (i.e. no more than 3 masters is recommended): https://github.com/apache/kudu/blob/branch-1.9.x/docs/known_issues.adoc#scale It would be nice to clarify whether there is anything substantial behind that limit, because as of now the recommendation stems from the fact that all of our multi-master tests and tested deployments are based on that number. Overall, being able to deploy 5 or more masters in case of bigger clusters makes sense from the HA perspective. > Explore limitations of multi-master Kudu deployments with more than 3 masters > ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: KUDU-2778 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KUDU-2778 > Project: Kudu > Issue Type: Task > Components: master > Reporter: Alexey Serbin > Priority: Major > > Currently, the recommended limit of Kudu masters in multi-master deployment > is 3 (i.e. no more than 3 masters is recommended): > https://github.com/apache/kudu/blob/branch-1.9.x/docs/known_issues.adoc#scale > It would be nice to clarify whether there is anything substantial behind that > limit.
