GBase 8a Implementation Guide: Resource Assessment

1. Disk Storage Space Evaluation

The storage space requirements for a GBase cluster are calculated based on the data volume of the business system, the choice of compression algorithm, and the number of cluster replicas. The data volume of a business system usually includes the following aspects:

  • Historical data volume
  • Incremental data volume and the size of each increment
  • Data storage period and total data volume for the entire period
  • Data growth rate and reserved storage space

Example

Considering the above aspects, assume that the total data volume for the entire period of a certain business system is 30TB. The calculation method for the physical disk capacity of the GBase cluster is as follows:
