Hi,
There’s the CPU benchmark requirement of 10k, 36GB EEC ram and SSD, is there any further specs required, like with the DDR-4 3200 on the memory list with the DMAs?

Apache documentation doesn’t make explicit RAM speed/latency recommendations. The amount of ECC RAM seems to be the most important factor. However, Cassandra reads directly from RAM constantly so DDR4-3200 with ECC is also recommended.

Thanks Jeremiah,
Currently we have a cluster running with Cassandra locally, these servers are running on DDR4-2400 EEC ram, we have some spare servers that we could use to migrate the database’s to a central cluster, but they only have DDR4-2133 EEC ram installed, with the motherboard only supporting up to DDR4-2400.
I would look at new servers, or possibly upgrading the ram, but this will only be a relatively short term solution, as we’re building out a new virtual environment to migrate DataMiner to.
