Thank you for your answer. Those links will be helpful for me. I will
order the book as well.

What I am planning now is to add at least 2 proxy nodes (with haproxy
setting, using vrrp in case of failure) and add 5 storage nodes. Proxy
nodes are connected to storage nodes via internal 10G interface, which I
believe will be enough for now.

I am trying to use the same set of hardware for storage nodes, and
different hardware for proxy nodes based on the need. I believe proxy
nodes will be CPU and network intensive as it will read data out of
storage and send back to the client. Storage nodes will have, as you
expect, lots of drives. The suggested RAM is 1G per 1TB. I will have
enough ram. Hopefully, it will work smoothly.

Thanks again for the links.

Regards,
