This is sort of off-topic, but does anybody have any experience with
Ceph?
http://ceph.newdream.net/
Good or bad war stories (and general thoughts) would be quite
welcome.
Not with ceph itself, but the description and terminology they use
remind me a lot of lustre (seems like it's a userspace version) which
we use at work. Does a damn fine job - as long as you get a stable
version. We have run into issues trying out new versions several
times...
I guess that sums up my impression of ceph so far: I don't see where it
would fit. I think that in HPC it is 99% Lustre, in enterprise it is
either
CIFS or NFS, etc.
There's some internal push for it around here so I was wondering
whether I missed a memo once again...
Thanks,
Roman.
