The :term:`Ceph Storage Cluster` has a messaging layer protocol that enables
|
2014-02-07 23:47:40 +00:00
|
|
|
clients to interact with a :term:`Ceph Monitor` and a :term:`Ceph OSD Daemon`.
|
2014-01-08 01:11:01 +00:00
|
|
|
``librados`` provides this functionality to :term:`Ceph Clients` in the form of
|
|
|
|
|
a library. All Ceph Clients either use ``librados`` or the same functionality
|
|
|
|
|
encapsulated in ``librados`` to interact with the object store. For example,
|
|
|
|
|
``librbd`` and ``libcephfs`` leverage this functionality. You may use
|
|
|
|
|
``librados`` to interact with Ceph directly (e.g., an application that talks to
|
|
|
|
|
Ceph, your own interface to Ceph, etc.).
