I am also interested in the answer to this. If I had to choose between having 2 dedicated servers, each with 32GB RAM, or 5 virtual servers each with 2GB RAM (which just happens to be the case for us at the moment), my gut feel is go with the 2 dedicated servers. But Basho seems pretty fixed on having at least 5 nodes. Would a 2 node system be viable?

Hello,

I need to decide what database we will choose for our project. Certainly, we need only 2 physical nodes (active-standby). Riak is good for us, becase it is Erlang-based, as our project. But is's known that riak cluster should have at least five nodes. I have some problems with my cluster, same as in this E-mail: http://lists.basho.com/pipermail/riak-users_lists.basho.com/2012-March/007988.html
Could you cleraly explain, please, is it possible to tune riak to work correctly with only 2 physical nodes, or we need to choose another DBMS?

Dmitry
