Schedule:

Ceph in OpenStack by Dmitry Boradenko, Senior Software Engineer @ Mirantis.

An overview of the flexibility brought to OpenStack by Ceph.

The junction of OpenStack, Ceph and High performance by Eli Karpilovski and Eyal Gutkind @ Mellanox.

We will review the recent results of Ceph benchmarks over high performance networks. Including configurations, application and results achieved using Ceph. In addition, we will discuss how OpenStack integrates high performance networking features.

Building Ceph Storage Fabrics by Kyle Bader @ Inktank.

Ceph, being a distributed storage system, is highly reliant on the
network for resiliency and performance. In addition, it is crucial
that the network topology beneath a Ceph cluster be designed in such a way to facilitate easy scaling without service disruption. After an introduction to Ceph itself this talk will dive into the design of Ceph client and cluster network topologies.
