Large Bandwidth

[Trevor Francis <tr...@tgrahamcapital.com>]

I am considering deploying a high bandwidth (high pps) application over XS and cloudstack. I am concerned with the hypervisor slowing down the connection. Each host will need to run a minimum of 800Mbps of bandwidth at 500,000 pps. I was thinking of deploying XE with dual GigE in active/active setup. Thoughts?

Should I deploy the application in Bare metal?

Trevor,

You should talk to XS about this.  CloudStack should be fine with this setup but you need verification on XS about whether it can sustain and whether active/active is a supported bond.
