Configuration Options

The StarlingX configuration options are:

  • Single all-in-one server
  • Two HA all-in-one servers
  • Two HA controller servers and two compute servers
  • Two HA controller servers and two compute servers with two HA storage server cluster


Single all-in-one server

The simplex configuration runs all Cloud functions (i.e. control, storage, and application workloads) on one node. This configuration is intended for very small and physically isolated Edge sites that do not require hardware redundancy. Simplex is a good configuration to use when evaluating StarlingX.

Two HA all-in-one servers

Starlingx-deployment-options-duplex1.png
The duplex configuration runs all Cloud functions (i.e. control, storage, and application workloads) on one node, but a second node exists for Active / Standby based hardware redundancy for all platform and optionally application services. Duplex is a good configuration to use when evaluating StarlingX’s High Availability capabilities.

Two HA controller servers and two compute servers

This configuration allows for one or two Controller nodes that also provide Storage for the Cloud. The configuration also allows for between one and approximately 100 Compute nodes to run application workloads. This configuration works best for Clouds with smaller Storage needs.

Two HA controller servers and two compute servers with two HA storage server cluster

This configuration is similar to the “Standard with controller storage” configuration but has dedicated Storage nodes in addition to the Controller and Compute nodes. You can use this configuration for Clouds that require larger amounts of Storage.
