Probably the opposite (if you could even do it). You'd lose the LRU caching across the boundary.
Is the data being written the same as the data being read, or is there a natural segmentation? If so you could implement a crude form of sharding/partioning to avoid "hot spots" (concurrency related) during these periods. As always, SSD + plenty of RAM. -----Original Message----- From: user-boun...@lists.neo4j.org [mailto:user-boun...@lists.neo4j.org] On Behalf Of Tero Paananen Sent: Tuesday, November 01, 2011 12:16 PM To: user@lists.neo4j.org Subject: [Neo4j] SDN w/ write and readonly Graph Database Service? I'm using SDN to build a graph db I'm expecting to have quite a heavy volume of write and read activity at peak times. We're not ready to start using HA at this point. I was wondering, if using Neo4J using two instances of the Graph Database Service, one EmbeddedGraphDatabase (writes), and one or more EmbeddedReadOnlyGraphDatabase (reads) would make any difference? Are there any benefits for splitting the db access that way? Or would accessing the db through the writable instance for all operations be pretty much the same? -TPP _______________________________________________ Neo4j mailing list User@lists.neo4j.org https://lists.neo4j.org/mailman/listinfo/user _______________________________________________ Neo4j mailing list User@lists.neo4j.org https://lists.neo4j.org/mailman/listinfo/user
