Gerolamo,
As previously noted, you can mix and match with some degree of
segregation (i.e. templates must be different).
I've not tried mixing KVM + VMware recently, but i see no reason why you
cannot do that, if i recall correctly, i've done so a year ago or so,
when i first installed cloudstack.
As for Cephs, i have somewhat similar setup, I have beefy vSphere
hypervisors with about 1.5tb of SSD drives on each hypervisor with 10GB
NICs, that until recently have been idle. I'm setting up Ceph cluster on
these and will front them with iSCSI to ESX hosts as VMFS. You can also
look into presenting Ceph as NFS to vmware.
Regards,
ilya

Hi Everybody,
i have a production environment of cloudstack 4.3 based on KVM hosts
and CEPH storage
It's a good solution for me and i have good performance on both
compute and storage side
But now i have an explicit customer request for VMware environment so
I'm investigating about it.
Here my questions:
- Can i have a mixed environment KVM + VMware vSphere Essentials Plus
Kit under Cloudstack?
- Can I have a mixed networking environment , so that i can, as
example, have a frontend VMs on KVM and a backend VMs on VMware, on
the same customere?
(- Third, but off topic, question: can i have VMware hosts and CEPH
storage?)
Is there someone with similar enviroment that can give me suggestion
about this?
