Overview

Ceph provides distributed storage with high availability and scalability. My implementation uses CRUSH maps for optimal data placement, with automatic replication and self-healing capabilities ensuring data integrity across multiple nodes.

Key Features

• Distributed object storage
• Block storage functionality
• File system integration
• Automatic data rebalancing
• Self-healing capabilities
• Replication and erasure coding

Architecture

Ceph uses a software-defined storage approach with a CRUSH algorithm for data placement. Data is automatically replicated across multiple OSDs (Object Storage Daemons) ensuring availability even when nodes fail. The cluster monitors health and rebuilds data as needed.

What It Enables

• Scalable storage capacity
• Data redundancy and protection
• Unified storage for multiple use cases
• No single point of failure
• High throughput operations
• Cloud-native storage integration
