Thank you all My goal is to have an SSD based Ceph ( NVME + SSD) cluster so I need to consider performance as well as reliability ( although I do realize that a performant cluster that breaks my VMware is not ideal ;-))
It appears that NFS is the safe way to do it but will it be the bottleneck from performance perspective Anyone did a comparison between iSCSI and NFS ? Would network be a bottleneck ?
