Fellow Metronians, We've had the unified enrichment topology around for a number of months now, it has proved itself stable, and there is yet to be a time that I have seen the split-join topology outperform the unified one. Here are some simple reasons to deprecate the split-join topology.
1. Unified topology performs better. 2. The configuration, especially for performance tuning is much, much simpler in the unified model. 3. The footprint within the cluster is smaller. 4. One of the first activities for any install is that we spend time instructing users to switch to the unified topology. 5. One less moving part to maintain. I'd like to recommend that we deprecate the split-join topology and make the unified enrichment topology the new default. Best, Mike
