This link points to a presentation we did a few weeks back where we used NVMe devices for both the data and journal. We partitioned the devices multiple times to co-locate multiple OSD's per device. The configuration data on the cluster is in the backup.

Ceph on any Flash drive will perform way better than on regular spinning disks, though certainly will not utilize its full potential. There is ongoing effort from multiple developers from multiple companies to fix that and things are getting better with each release.
