Tuesday Tech Tip - Ceph Deployment Tools

Each Tuesday, we will be releasing a tech tip video that will give users information on various topics relating to our Storinator storage servers.

This week, Brett gives you an overview of the main tools that are available to deploy a Ceph storage cluster. He introduces Ceph deploy, Cephadm and Ansible, discusses why we love Ansible at 45Drives and gives an outlook on where he thinks the Ceph developers are going next with these tools.

Be sure to watch next Tuesday, when we give you another 45 Drives tech tip.

Did you ever follow up on the idea for a video on Ceph Containers vs Bare Metal?
Went hunting for it but couldn't find it on your channel.

Thanks as ever for all the great information you guys provide! :-)

So far Cephadm has worked well for us.

We use combination of Jenkins, ansible and shell scripts

Are these recommendations still current 3 yrs later?

Ceph ansible is problematic, not even once works without manual works to edit playbooks or some ansible version or some python modules ... it's great if works :)
