I think it's essential for huge data clusters to deal with data locality.
Even very expensive network stack (100Gb/s) will not mitigate the problem if 
you need to move petabytes of data many times a day.
Maybe there is some workaround  to the problem?

This functionality is not in Ceph.
Ceph has no notion about locality: faster "local nodes" vs slower "remote 
nodes".
The only thing you can configure is a failure domain which just makes sure the 
data is properly spread across the DC.
