High Load capacity plan sizing example

...

(1) The hosting server (e.g. ESXi) CPU utilization should not exceed 80%. To ensure best indexing performance, the virtual machine configuration should be set to have reserved CPUs.

(2) Local SSD preferred - should be located on a data store separated from the other disks.

(3) To ensure best query performance, the virtual machine configuration should be set to have reserved memory.

(4) The TPS is the maximum total transaction load across all devices/domains connected to DPOD.

(5) To cater for 1500 TPS, customers are required to have 256GB memory, 24 Physical cores (each is Hyper-Threaded thus equivalent to a total of 48), Local storage with RAID0 across 4-8 SSD Disks (SAS 6GBs) - each supporting at least 80K Random Write IOPS 4KiB and write avg latency of less than 35 uSec. Two controllers will be required to be attached to each CPU. Please keep the ratio between RAM and Data storage size to be 1GB RAM: 16GB Data Disk (recommended) and no more than 1 GB RAM:32GB DISK Disk (minimal).

(6) To cater to 2750 TPS or more, customers will be provided with specifications after a sizing process with L3.


High Load capacity plan sizing example

  • To process a maximum of 10,000 TPS (assuming ~35 Syslog records per transaction on average), the DPOD environment should have 7 servers with 2 sockets and 2 Intel-based CPUs - each with 12 physical cores of 2.6 GHz (non-turbo) and with hyper-threaded Support. Each server requires 256GB of RAM and storage specification as described below(5).
  • Each DPOD environment will support no more than 10,000 TPS and up to 7 nodes.
  • Customers with higher load than that are expected to create separate environments, each can handle up to 10,000 TPS.

Storage Recommendation

  • DPOD serves as a database and should, therefore, be configured to use very fast disks. For this reason, DPOD installation requires 3 separate DISKS  for OS, Installation, and Data.
  • Usage of slow disks is not recommended and will impact the amount of time between the creation of transaction logs and the availability of the data on DPOD's dashboards.
  • For Physical hardware installations that can utilize HW RAID services the following setup is recommended:
    • RAID5 - 40GB - for OS disk
    • RAID5 - 40GB - for App disk
    • RAID0 - Depends on volume - for Data disk. 

  • For each 1 TB of data 64 GB of RAM is recommended for responsive queries (dashboards and filters). Please keep the ratio between RAM and Data storage size to be 1GB RAM: 16GB Data Disk (recommended) and no more than 1 GB RAM:32GB DISK (minimal).
