Hello Wido,
Thank you for the response.
Sorry for not framing the questions with correct word. By ceph I meant
Rados Gateway. Used the word ceph generically. My apologies!
I understand that RGW stripes the as per stripes size, but why does it
again divide the individual stripe into more smaller chunk as per the
configured chunk size (max_chunk_size)? What benefit do we get by doing
this?
I meant is it not enough just to stripe the object into stripes , why to
break stripes into more smaller chunks?
If an object is divided into series of smaller units (for performance
benefit) , how does RGW returns the complete object when GET request is
made?
How does RGW understands which all chunks belongs to requested object and
how does it combine them?
Where does it store the ids/numbers of subsequent stripes to form a
complete object from its smaller chunks?
Thanks,
Prasad
