Capacity planning
Introduction
In order for you to run OpenObserve in high availability mode, you need to plan for the following:
- Compute capacity
- Memory capacity
- S3 storage capacity
- Disk storage for caching and ingestion
- Storage capacity
Capacity planing can be complex as the hardware requirements can vary based on the use case as well as the availability of hardware can vary.
We have provided a capcity planning sheet that can help you plan for your OpenObserve cluster. It is based in infrastructure in AWS.
Capacity planning sheet
Capacity planning sheet can be used to estimate your OpenObserve cluster hardware requirements. The sheet is based on AWS infrastructure.
In order to use it, make a copy of the sheet and fill in the following information:
- Daily Ingestion Volume (TB/Day)
- Data Retention (Days)
