Scalability questions to consider:
- Number of devices
- Number of flows per second
- Storage retention Period
- Local attached storage an not Network attached
Notes:
- Larger then 200k flows per second requires distributed netflow servers
- The CPU and RAM needs to be reserved at top priority (all the cores and memory)
- Bandwidth between devices and Arbitrators needs to capable of data flows
- The CPU an RAM needs to be reserved a top priority (all the cores and memory)
- Bandwidth between devices an Arbitrator needs to capable of data flows
