This sounds doable, with a few caveats. Currently, replication is only one direction. You can only write to the primary zone, and you can read from the primary or secondary zones. A cluster can have many zones on it. I'm thinking your setup would be a star topology. Each telescope will be a p

Hi! Our institute now planning to deploy a set of robotic telescopes across a country. Most of the telescopes will have low bandwidth and high latency, or even not permanent internet connectivity. I think, we can set up synchronization of observational data with ceph, using federated gateways:
