About the Author

Nick Fisk is an IT specialist with a strong history in enterprise storage. Having worked in a variety of roles throughout his career, he has encountered a wide variety of technologies. In 2012, Nick was given the opportunity to focus more toward open source technologies, and this is when his first exposure to Ceph happened. Having seen the potential of Ceph as a storage platform and the benefits of moving away from the traditional closed-stack storage platforms, Nick pursued Ceph with a keen interest.

Throughout the following years, his experience with Ceph increased with the deployment of several clusters and enabled him to spend time in the Ceph community, helping others and improving certain areas of Ceph.

I would firstly like to thank my wife for allowing me to dedicate time to writing this book and to Juliana Nair for supporting me through the writing process.
I would also like to especially thank Tarquin Dunn for the continual support and encouragement he has given me from the initial adoption of Ceph as a storage platform. His support has enabled me to both learn and contribute to this amazing open source project.

Table of Contents
Preface

Ceph, a unified, highly resilient, distributed storage system that provides block, object, and file access, has enjoyed a surge in popularity over the last few years. Due to being open source, Ceph has enjoyed rapid adoption both from developers and end users alike, with several well-known corporations being involved in the project. With every new release, the scale of its performance and feature set continues to grow, further enhancing Ceph's status.

With the current ever-increasing data storage requirements and challenges faced by legacy RAID-based systems, Ceph is well placed to offer an answer to these problems. As the world moves forward adopting new cloud technologies and object-based storage, Ceph is ready and waiting to be the driving force as part of the new era of storage technologies.

In this book, we will cover a wide variety of topics, from installing and managing a Ceph cluster to how to recover from disasters, should you ever find yourself in that situation. For those that have interest in getting their applications to talk directly to Ceph, this book will also show you how to develop applications that make use of Ceph's libraries and even how to perform distributed computing by inserting your own code into Ceph. By the end of this book, you will be well on your way to mastering Ceph.

What this book covers

, Planning for Ceph, covers the basics of how Ceph works, its basic architecture, and what some good use cases are. It also discusses the steps that one should take to plan before implementing Ceph, including design goals, proof of concept, and infrastructure design.
