<div dir="ltr">Hi.<div><br></div><div>I'm considering a reasonably sized OpenStack deployment shortly (several thousand cores). One of the decisions I need to make centres around the type of interconnect I will use to connect the compute nodes, Swift object storage, shared storage, swift proxies et al.</div>
<div><br></div><div style>I have been heavily considering FDR infiniband for this task, but, from what I can see, IB has only recently become something one might consider stable for use in OpenStack. My peers are suggesting to me that I should just stick with 10GbE interconnects and be happy.</div>
<div style><br></div><div style>I'd like to hear the experiences of people who have or are using IB, or who have experiences with IB deployments. </div><div style><br></div><div style>Thank you.</div><div style><br></div>
