<div dir="ltr"><div>Ehsan,</div><div><br></div>While I haven't personally run heavy load FS instances in containers yet (only testing), I can't see a reason this would be a problem. Docker containers are just glorified Linux cgroups, and have virtually zero measurable overhead - especially so if you're not actually using CPU/memory limitations.<div><br></div><div>A couple of things to consider:</div><div>Given that FS is likely to use a lot of bandwidth, you're probably best off using host networking if possible (avoids significant numbers of iptables rules or userland proxies on older version of docker). This will also help avoid ugliness with getting FS to properly handle the local Docker bridge IP.</div><div>Local disk I/O <i>will</i><b style="font-style:italic"> </b>be slower in Docker, but how much so largely depends on on which storage driver you use. That said, if you're considering putting FS in Docker I assume you're likely not doing local disk I/O in FS anyway.</div><div><br></div><div><div>Hopefully that's helpful.</div></div><div><br></div><div>Best,</div><div>Colin</div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr">On Sat, Oct 15, 2016 at 1:22 PM Ehsan Minachi <<a href="mailto:ehsanminachi@gmail.com">ehsanminachi@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">Hello all,<br class="gmail_msg">

We’ve containerized our infrastructure. The only piece left is FreeSWITCH which we’re hesitant. Has anyone run FreeSWITCH under high load in a container? Would love to hear if there are any downsides to running FreeSWITCH in a container.<br class="gmail_msg">
