Storage clusters are the foundation of the Ceph system. Ceph storage hosts provide object storage.
|
|
|
|
|
Clients access the Ceph storage cluster directly from an application (using ``librados``),
|
|
|
|
|
over an object storage protocol such as Amazon S3 or OpenStack Swift (using ``radosgw``), or with a block
|
|
|
|
|
device (using ``rbd``). To begin using Ceph, you must first set up a storage cluster.
