Cool, thanks for the link. It explains very good how to make sure a specific component can be run on a specific machine.

I assume if I want this special component to be the only component on that machine, I could allow only one slot on this machine?

But there seems to be no general feature which would keep other components off the special machine?

(Maybe I should just go off and read the source of DefaultScheduler, but hint are appreciated :-)

Hi all,

suppose you need to process input available on source.host and the
results should finally end up on dest.host. A storm topology shall do
the processing.

It is easy to write a sprout that fetches the data and emits it into the
topology. Similarly a sink-bolt can write the result somewhere.

But now suppose that the data is available only locally on source.host
in the file system. Is it possible and natural to make source.host a
machine in the Storm cluster but somehow make sure that *only* the
sprout is executed on source.host. Similarly, would it be possible to
bind a sink bolt to one specific machine, the dest.host?

If this is not a possible or not a preferred way to do it, are there any
specific techniques used to provide input to a sprout beyond whatever
remote access methods happen to be available (smb, nfs, ssh, http)?

Thanks for any hints,
Harald.
