How to create and scale 6,000 virtual machines in 7 hours with Red Hat OpenShift Virtualization
In the world of organizational infrastructure, sometimes there’s an urgent need to rapidly scale up. Organizations may have a limited amount of time to stand up new infrastructure, a problem which is compounded by the size of the services in question.
In this learning path, we will explore a large-scale deployment scenario enabling 6,000 virtual machines (VMs) and 15,000 pods. This involves an external Red Hat® Ceph® Storage 12-node cluster and a Red Hat OpenShift® Virtualization 132 node cluster, integrated with an external Ceph Storage cluster.
Please note: This scenario is meant to show how such a task can be done using specific hardware. Your organization’s unique needs and requirements may differ.
