Hi,I don't know exactly what you would like to do with these datas, but if I were you, I would take a close look at elasticsearch, spark or even hdf5, depending on what your analysis software looks like (is coded with...), to see if these technologies could save up some time. Moreover, I won't dismiss NFS easily, espacially if your infrastructure already use it.
Elasticsearch can be plugged easily with kibana. Best regards, On 04/03/2019 08:04, Jonathan Aquilina wrote:

But if the files are log files, consider some tools that are suited for analyzing those like Kibana. /tony On Mon, 2019-03-04 at 06:55 +0000, Jonathan Aquilina wrote:Hi Tony, Sadly I cant go into much detail due to me being under an NDA. At this point with the prototype we have around 250gb of sample data but again this data is dependent on the type of air craft. Larger aircraft and longer flights will generate a lot more data as they have more sensors and will log more data than the sample data that I have. The sample data is 250gb for 35 aircraft of the same type.

I am in discussions with another partner involved in this project about the best way forward on this. For me given the amount of data (and it is a huge amount of data) that an RDBMS such as postgresql would be a major bottle neck. Another thing that was considered flat files, and I think the best for that would be a Hadoop cluster with HDFS. But in the case of HPC how can such an environment help in terms of ingesting and analytics of large amounts of data? Would said flat files of data be put on a SAN/NAS or something and through an NFS share accessed that way for computational purposes?

We have a bunch of smaller nodes storing the data and all the management nodes(ambari, HDFS namenodes etc.) are vm's. Our nodes are configured so that we have a maximum of 2 cores per disk spindle and 4G of memory for each core. This seems to do the trick and is pretty responsive. But to be able to provide better advice, you will probably need to go into a bit more detail about what types of data you will be storing and which kind of calculations you want to perform. /tony -- Tony Albers - Systems Architect - IT Development Royal Danish Library, Victor Albecks Vej 1, 8000 Aarhus C, Denmark Tel: +45 2566 2383 - CVR/SE: 2898 8842 - EAN: 5798000792142-- Tony Albers - Systems Architect - IT Development Royal Danish Library, Victor Albecks Vej 1, 8000 Aarhus C, Denmark Tel: +45 2566 2383 - CVR/SE: 2898 8842 - EAN: 5798000792142 _______________________________________________ Beowulf mailing list, Beowulf@beowulf.org sponsored by Penguin Computing To change your subscription (digest mode or unsubscribe) visit http://www.beowulf.org/mailman/listinfo/beowulf
