EC2 Partition Placement Strategy
Partition Placement StrategyΒΆ
- Up to 7 partitions per Availability Zone
- Up to 100s of AWS EC2 instances
-
The instances in a partition do not share racks with the instances in other partitions
-
A [[partition failure]] can affect many AWS EC2 but won't affect other partitions
- AWS EC2 instances get access to the partition information as metadata
Use cases: - [[HDFS]] - [[HBase]] - [[Cassandra]] - [[Kafka]]
