+1 on what Nux said.
Personally I'd go NFS, then CEPH, then local storage as my options.

Sanjay,

Ok, so if you are looking for CEPH improvements then there are companies that 
deal with it, such as 42on, Croit etc - I am sure there are more, perhaps 
others can complete the list.
In terms of commercial offerings, if your thing is distributed and 
hyperconverged then Storpool or Linstor comes to mind.

Last but not least, if you are ok with not having fail over, VMs on local 
storage (SSD, NVME) are the fastest, so you could offer several tiers of 
storage I guess to meet most needs.
Additionally NFS can still be a great solution if you plan it right and it's 
easy to do and has very mature support in Cloudstack, it will likely be faster 
than CEPH in many circumstances.

The above is very generic advice and you should do more research before 
committing to anything.
