This is sort of off-topic, but does anybody have any experience with
Ceph?

Good or bad war stories (and general thoughts) would be quite welcome.

Not with ceph itself, but the description and terminology they use
remind me a lot of lustre (seems like it's a userspace version) which
we use at work. Does a damn fine job - as long as you get a stable
version. We have run into issues trying out new versions several
times...

I guess that sums up my impression of ceph so far: I don't see where it
would fit. I think that in HPC it is 99% Lustre, in enterprise it is either
CIFS or NFS, etc.

There's some internal push for it around here so I was wondering
whether I missed a memo once again...

Thanks,
Roman.
