Hi John -<br>
<br>
Here's an example architecture:<br>
<a href="http://docs.openstack.org/trunk/openstack-object-storage/admin/content/example-object-storage-installation-architecture.html" target="_blank">http://docs.openstack.org/trunk/openstack-object-storage/admin/content/example-object-storage-installation-architecture.html</a><br>
<br>
It shows five storage nodes, a proxy node, and an auth node (seven<br>
servers). You could use five storage nodes with one of the storage<br>
nodes also serving as a proxy and auth server. These would meet a<br>
"production" requirement of replication (five copies means that three<br>
servers would have to go down before you distrust the data retrieval)<br>
- but if the production requirements were different, say speed of<br>
retrieval was the highest need, then you might create a different<br>
architecture. If complete safety and replication of the data was<br>
highest priority, you could use 10 servers (just an example).<br>
<br>
Storage operators, feel free to chime in.<br>
Thanks,<br>
Anne<br>
