The Ceph Object Store is the foundation of all Ceph clusters, and it consists
|
|
primarily of two types of daemons: Object Storage Daemons (OSDs) and monitors.
|
|
The Ceph Object Store is based upon the concept of
|
|
:abbr:`RADOS (Reliable Autonomic Distributed Object Store)`, which eliminates
|
|
single points of failure and delivers infinite scalability. For details on
|
|
the architecture of Ceph and RADOS, refer to `Ceph Architecture`_. All Ceph
|
|
deployments have OSDs and monitors, so you should prepare your Ceph cluster
|
|
by focusing first on the object storage cluster.

|
|
To begin using Ceph in production, you should review our hardware
|
|
recommendations and operating system recommendations. Many of the
|
|
frequently-asked questions in our mailing list involve hardware-related
|
|
questions and how to install Ceph on various distributions.

|
|
|
|
If you are deploying a Ceph cluster (that is, not developing Ceph),
|
|
install Ceph using our stable release packages. For testing, you
|
|
may install development release and testing packages.

</td><td><h3>Building Ceph from Source</h3>
|
|
|
|
You can build Ceph from source by downloading a release or cloning the ``ceph``
|
|
repository at github. If you intend to build Ceph from source, please see the
|
|
build pre-requisites first. Making sure you have all the pre-requisites
|
|
will save you time.
