Scaling and Session Handling

Closed this issue · 1 comments

About Tornado on OpenShift Quickstart 1, 2 - when I go about creating an application with this type in the web console, it gives me the option of making it scalable. But it uses a DIY cartridge, which isn't supposed to be scalable. So, my questions are:

  1. Is this actually scalable?
  2. Are requests handled asynchronously in the traditional Tornado manner? How does this work - gears containing a Tornado server each are turned up on demand automatically to serve non-blocking requests?
  3. Is session handling managed by HAProxy (sticky sessions)?

Oops, verified myself. After continuing with "Scale with web traffic", it gives the error "Scalable app cannot be of type 'diy-0.1'.". Closing issue.
