Install JanusGraph on Cassandra node/container or not


I want to test JanusGraph with Cassandra. Would you install it on the same node or in my case the same node. Any why or why not?

Thanks Regards


Solution

  • If you are testing JanusGraph with Cassandra using a small-medium graph (1M-10M elements) to get a feel for how the graph database works, then the pre-packaged distribution can suit your needs adequately. The pre-packaged distribution is a single zip file that you can download. It contains a script that will start a Cassandra node, an Elasticsearch node, and a Gremlin Server with bin/janusgraph.sh start. The pre-packaged distribution is not intended for production use.

    If you are planning to test a production system or a large-huge graph (100M-1B elements), then you should consider using a Cassandra cluster.
