Extensions are not same as native CloudStack hypervisor/storage plugins, the scope and limitations are mentioned here - https://docs.cloudstack.apache.org/en/latest/adminguide/extensions.html#extensions https://docs.cloudstack.apache.org/en/latest/adminguide/extensions.html#limitations

The CloudStack integration with KVM also supports Ceph; you can introduce both "replicated" and "erasure code" pools to be consumed with RBD in ACS+KVM. Furthermore, you could also work with CephFS on ACS; you could mount the filesystem in a common directory in all the hosts and introduce it as a "SharedMountPoint" primary storage. There are plans to introduce CephFS as a protocol for primary storage in the future, similarly to NFS. However, the Ceph cluster is not managed by ACS, you must manage it (create the cluster, create the pools, configure the CRUSH rules, create the credentials, and so on) outside of ACS.
