Using elasticsearch on cassandra nodes

2011-10-17 Thread Anthony Ikeda
I've already posted to the elasticsearch groups and thought it prudent to also ask here. We are looking at using elastic search to index our data that we currently store to Cassandra. I was wondering if there are any concerns running elastic search on the same nodes that we use for Cassandra? We h

Anthony, We've been looking at elastic search as well. Presently we have SOLR in place, but it is cumbersome dealing with SOLR schemas when indexing information out of Cassandra (since you can't anticipate all the columns ahead of time). What are you using as your bridge between Cassandra and ES

At the moment we are only prototyping so we haven't bridged the two at all. We had planned on creating a write-through operation that allowed us to filter the calls (AOP perhaps?) to manage the indexing as we stored it in Cassandra. We are still trying to work out if we go the elastic search route

Brian, We've taken the same approach, with ElasticSearch running on the same nodes as Cassandra. Make sure you have enough memory on your nodes, because ElasticSearch and Cassandra both love memory. We started with 12gb of memory, allocating ElasticSearch and Cassandra 5gb each and it wasn
