wiki - deployment policy questions

What is the difference between the algorithms round robin and one after another?

How does the administrator choose which algorithm is the most
suitable?  Is there advice we could give?

Do we support any other partitionAlgo?

Many thanks,

Chris

Super question, Chris!

Your questions have helped tremendously to identify finer information that
we need to add to enrich the Stratos docs. Ya, you can go right ahead and
add this information into the docs. I think this information might fit in
here [1] the best.

Thanks Afkham!

This would be a useful addition to the wiki - does anyone have any
objections to me adding this?

I think round-robin means, allocate the first instance in the first
partition, 2nd instance in the 2nd partition and so on, while one after
another means, fill the first partition first until maxed out, then go to
the 2nd partition and so on.

In a typical Cloud bursting scenario, we would use one after another. For
example, if an enterprise has its private cloud, all instances would be
allocated there, and when we run out of capacity, we would go to the next
partition on the public cloud.

The round robin case could be a case for very high availability, where
instances are spawned across multiple IaaS providers.
