Types of service tiers
Dataproc Metastore uses service tiers to manage stability and
workloads. You can select a tier when you create a Dataproc Metastore
service or change it for an existing service.
There are two types of service tiers:
Developer: The Developer tier is typically used for
low-cost proof-of-concept projects. This tier provides limited scalability
and no fault tolerance.
Enterprise: The Enterprise tier is typically used for production
projects. This tier provides flexible scalability, fault tolerance,
and multi-zone high availability. It can handle heavy Dataproc Metastore workloads.
By default, new Dataproc Metastore services are created with the
Developer tier.
