I want to deploy a multisite Splunk cluster in the Docker Swarm cluster. We have 2 datacenters in different cities with the VMWare VSphere where we used to create virtual machines and install Swarm into this VMs. But now I want to create more advanced setup using Docker Swarm. I'm planning to create geo-distributed Docker Swarm cluster with 3 master VMs and 5-10 worker nodes in both VSpheres. Inside that cluster I want to deploy multisite Docker Stack with following architecture: [site1] 1 splunk cluster master - main 2 splunk indexers 2 splunk searchheads 1 splunk searchhead captain 1 splunk deployer [site2] 1 splunk cluster master - backup 2 splunk indexers 2 splunk searchheads 1 splunk searchhead captain Is it good architecture for ingesting big amounts of data? Which Docker network type should I use? For storage I want to use Docker daemon's local storage driver on each of the Swarm VMs, is it good choice or not?
