Re: When to use multiple clusters

2014-07-23 Thread Alex Kehayias
Thanks Mark! We're deploying on EC2 (always a good time). Seems like the 
mixture of different indices that have different usage profiles is leading 
to some performance issues that a dedicated cluster would be more 
appropriate for.

When to use multiple clusters

2014-07-23 Thread Alex Kehayias
I have several large indices (100M docs) on the same cluster. Is there any 
advice of when it is appropriate to separate into multiple clusters vs one 
large one? Each index has a slightly different usage profile (read vs write 
heavy, update vs insert). How many indices would you recommend for a single 
cluster? Is it ok to have many large indices on the same cluster? 

Thanks!
