<p>We look into what a Ceph implementation entails, what specific use-cases it excels at.</p>
<p>And we also talk about the building blocks of the system. What kind of hosts is required for different Ceph daemons and the requirements regarding disk space, CPU, and memory.</p>
<p>The services we are talking about are OSD (Object storage daemon), Monitors, Managers, and MDS (MetaData Services).</p>
<p>Ceph can be used as an S3 compatible object store, disk storage, and even a file system, depending on your setup.</p>
<p>If you are interested in diving deeper into the topic, I have created a couple of videos on the subject that might interest you.</p>
