Ceph is a massively scalable, open source, distributed storage system. It is comprised of an object store, block store, and a POSIX-compatible distributed file system. The platform is capable of auto-scaling beyond the exabyte level, it runs on commodity hardware, it is self-healing and self-managing, and has no single point of failure. Ceph is in the Linux kernel and is currently being integrated with the OpenStack™ cloud operating system.
“One of the key factors for choosing object storage is the cost per GB is less than on-line storage like NFS or Lustre. SoftIron’s product is the lowest cost, best packaged and uses the least amount of energy/cooling. SoftIron’s integration of Ceph object storage has been key to solving storage scalability issues and allowing better support for future Test and Evaluation missions.”
