Project IntersectionYou can always use more friends

Kernel clients for RBD and CephFS. Active development as a Linux file system.

STGT

XenServerKernel

VMWare

Commercially supported product from Citrix. Recently Open Sourced. Still a bit of a tech preview.

One of the Linux iSCSI target frameworks. Emulates SBC (disk), SMC (jukebox), MMC (CD/DVD), SSC (tape), OSD.

Community member used Ceph to back a VMWare virtualization infrastructure via fibre channel.

Project IntersectionMOAR projects

Drop in replacement for HDFS. Others are also expanding that work using RGW

Ganesha

SambaHadoop

Wireshark

Upstream in Samba. Can’t export CephFS directly via NFS or Samba, but can via a gateway.

Work being done to plug Ganesha into CephFS for NFS and CIFS. Also potential for RBD connector for same.

Early work available from Inktank, but more community work coming in.

OrchestrationThe new hotness

Procedural, RubyWritten in Ruby, this is more of the dev-side of DevOps. Once you get past the learning curve it’s powerful though.

Ansible

PuppetChef

Salt

Model-drivenAimed more at the sysadmin, this procedural tool has a very wide penetration (even on Windows!)

Agent, whole stackUsing the built-in OpenSSH in your OS, this super easy tool goes further up the stack than most.

Fast, 0MQUsing ZeroMQ, this tool is designed for massive scale and fast, fast, fast. Unfortunately 0MQ has no built in encryption.

11

OrchestrationMOAR hotness

Canonical unleashedLanguage agnostic, this tool can totally encapsulate a service. Can also handle provisioning all the way to bare metal.

Crowbar

ComodITJuju

ceph-deploy

Others joining in!Custom provisioning and orchestration, just one example of how busy this corner of the market is.

Dell’s in the gameComplete operations platform that can dive all the way down to BIOS/RAID level.

Doing it w/o a toolIf you prefer not to use a tool, Ceph gives you an easy way to deploy your cluster by hand.
