I think of clusters and classes like this. A class is only a logic container for data. The cluster, however, is a logical location for the data. (Someone from ODB correct me, if my thinking is wrong).
It makes no sense whatsoever to have a cluster per instance/record. Though, I am also not completely certain what you mean with the instance part. In the end, you can use clusters for data locality within your server cluster. This helps, for instance, when your userbase is global and your database becomes large and you want to spread the data across the globe. Though, these kinds of contemplations come very late in a scaling out scenario. Scott -- --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "OrientDB" group.
