Data is one of the most critical resources of our time. Storage for data has always been a critical architectural element for every data center, requiring careful considerations for storage performance, scalability, reliability, data protection, durability and resilience. A decade ago, the market was aggressively embracing public storage because of its agility and scalability. In the last few years, people have been rethinking that approach, moving toward on-premises storage with cloud consumption models. The new cloud native architecture on-premises has the promise of the traditional data center’s security and reliability with cloud agility and scalability.
Ceph, an Open Source project for enterprise unified software-defined storage, represents a compelling solution for this cloud native on-premises architecture and will be the topic of our next SNIA Cloud Storage Technologies Initiative webinar, “Ceph: The Linux of Storage Today.”
This webinar will discuss:
- How Ceph targets important characteristics of modern software-defined data centers
- Use cases that illustrate how Ceph has evolved, along with future use cases
- Quantitative data points that exemplify Ceph’s community success
