Best configuration for 16 nodes (3 replies)

Hi!

I have 16 nodes (16 cores and 16GB per node), so I wonder which is the best configuration for MySQL Cluster. On one hand, the more MySQL Servers I have, the more computing power I have to execute a query. On the other hand, the more Data Nodes I have, the more data I can store in memory (and also computing power for data sending).

I would say: in each node, execute a MySQL Server and also a Data Node (server). What drawbacks does this configuration present?

PD: How are the queries distributed over the MySQL servers?

Thanks in advance!
