Multisite Clustering • Room 1

Multisite Concepts

Multisite clustering extends indexer clustering across geographic locations. `site_replication_factor` and `site_search_factor` define how many copies exist per site (e.g., `origin:2,total:3`).

The `origin` value means copies kept at the site where data was originally ingested. The `total` value is the overall cluster-wide requirement.

Question 1 of 1
In a multisite cluster, `site_replication_factor = origin:2,total:3` means:
A3 copies at every site.
B2 copies stay at the originating site, and at least 1 additional copy is placed at another site, for a total of 3 copies cluster-wide.
C2 copies total.
D3 copies at the origin site only.
