Hi Justin.  Thanks for the feedback.

There are folks here where I work who want to move Storm (along with Kafka
and Zookeeper) to a VMWare cluster.  This seems like not the way to go,
but since I haven't tried it myself I was soliciting opinion to get a
broader perspective.  I'm wondering how you would even go about balancing
a Storm topology when the hardware specifics are abstracted away. I would think tuning would be very problematic.

We ran under open stack for our initial production deployment. With a single, fairly simple topology, it worked pretty good. However we were not able to sustain multiple topologies running on a single cluster. Despite hours and days of tuning various options.


Migrating to physical hardware solved all of our issues.

Hi folks,

What is the general consensus on running Storm on virtual hardware, eg VMware? Does anyone have any experience using Storm in this way in production?

Thanks
