Not a heavy load on dspace here.. but some thoughts on deploying in VM. If your VM environment is built properly to handle load then there should be no issue in running dspace (or any service).
As said before our dspace is lightly hit.. but other things in our VM space get used quite heavily: moodle, mysql, IdP's, m$sql, mrtg. Just to name off some things.. Our rule is if it is at all possible to get it in VM space then that is where it goes. Sometimes this means we have to configure the service as a cluster rather than a single instance, a bit more work up front than we would need if one physical box was going to run the service but worth it in the long run for us. ------ thanks kevin.foote On Tue, 31 Jan 2012, Kristian Roberto Salcedo wrote: -> Hi all, -> -> Does anyone have good experience with running large, -> high-load DSpace instances in virtual environments? -> -> I tend to go with physical and although the virtual -> solution seems ok in theory I'm a bit skeptical... -> -> regards, -> Kristian Salcedo -> University of Oslo Library -> -> ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ -> Keep Your Developer Skills Current with LearnDevNow! -> The most comprehensive online learning library for Microsoft developers -> is just $99.99!
