What does “Device Overload” mean?
The challenge of device overload persists due to the high volume of data being written to the Aerospike server, causing the SSD to fall behind. While there is a solution for the Aerospike connector, it hasn’t been highlighted by Sir John in any official communication.
Currently, submit a ticket to the operations team to initiate the rebalancing of the Aerospike server.
