How is the performance on BitBucket Data Center?

Question

I am running my stash application on single node. The plan is to upgrade it to BitBucket and push it to DataCenter. So with this multi-node architecture, I wanted to know the impact of performance. Is it much better compared to single node architecture?

Answer 1

In my experience it is about the same. Data Centre uses NFS to provide HA Active-Active capability so. NFS speeds can vary: https://confluence.atlassian.com/enterprise/bitbucket-data-center-faq-776663707.html#BitbucketDataCenterFAQ-nfsWon'tNFSbethebottleneckinmyBitbucketDataCenterinstance?

The main advantage of Data Centre is mirroring if you have remote developers:

High availability:

It is also easy to add more nodes to a cluster should one go down:
