I think the storage node/proxy node distinction if a good idea, because they have different requirements in bandwidth, disk and CPU; check: http://swift.openstack.org/howto_installmultinode.html#basic-architecture-and-terms The minimal production environment could be 3 storage nodes (different machines, because you need at least 3 zones if you're going to have 3 replicas), and a variable number of proxy nodes (at least one!). You need to host the authentication service somewhere (if you're running just one proxy, that can be the place). I recommend you reading: http://swift.openstack.org/deployment_guide.html#deployment-options > And another question : the servers install swift need the CPU support VT? > Because we have some server does not support VT, maybe those server > can work as storage server? You don't need VT support on any swift node. Regards, Juan -- Juan J.
