System and method for a distributed key-value store

Abstract:

An apparatus includes a processor having programmed instructions to determine a container number of container instances to be deployed in a cluster based on compute resources and determine a node number of virtual nodes to be deployed in the cluster based on storage resources. The node number of virtual nodes includes a key-value store. Each of the node number of virtual nodes owns a corresponding key range of the key-value store. The processor has programmed instructions to distribute the node number of virtual nodes equally across the container number of container instances and deploy the container number of container instances.
