Description
Enterprises deploying cloud web hosting needed storage solutions that can help them manage critical business data. With the rise of open source software and high-performance storage systems, their penetration into cloud technology became imminent.
Underlining this principle of high-performance storage systems for fast compute speed, Ceph storage was formed.
Ceph, a distributed object-based stor-age system that meets these challenges, providing high-performance file storage that scales directly with the num-ber of OSDs and Metadata servers.
Ceph is an open source software put together to facilitate highly scalable object, block and file-based storage under one whole system.
