Index Size

Index Size

• Core index size• Fields, term frequency, count, and settings• Number of dynamic fields and frequency using Luke• termVectors="false" • termPositions="false" • termOffsets="false"• omitNorms="true"• Only index fields you intend to search

Dynamic Fields

Indexing throughput

• Set autoSoftCommit as high as possible• Disable all caches except filterCache• Increase RAM buffer to 512-1024MB• Enable realtime indexing• Large heap (20GB) with G1 or 8150 tuning• Increase back_pressure_threshold_per_core to 2000-5000• Set max_solr_concurrency_per_core to number of cores• Recommend more cores (32)

Live Indexing Throughput

Live Indexing Throughput

Query Latency and Throughput

• Set autoSoftCommit as high as possible• Disable all caches except filterCache• Use docValues for faceted or sorted fields• Large heap (20GB) with G1 or 8150 tuning• Move query parameters to filters• Use single pass queries where possible• Recommend more cores (32)

Query Latency and Throughput

• DSETool Performance objects• Solr slow query log• Tracing• Use Jbean com.datastax.bdp.search DSP-2792

DSE vs ElasticSearch

Feature DSE ElasticSearch

Replication and multiple datacentersBased on Cassandra, multi-DC support for free,

real-time replication, high availabilityMaster slave, long replication delay, doesn't do

multi-DC well

Scalability Hundreds of nodes, hundreds of terabytes 10s of nodes a couple terabytes

Data loss possible No Yes

Primary Data Store Yes No

Operational Complexity Single system Multiple systems

Analytics Yes No

Dynamic Schema Sorta Sorta, slightly easier

Increased performance by 700% while growing data by 500%

Reduced operational costs by 40%
