Ceph
High-Capacity, High-Performance, Reliable Storage
Manage Oceans of Data on Industry-Standard Hardware
Using commodity hardware, Ceph liberates storage clusters from traditional scalability and performance limitations,
dynamically replicating and rebalancing data within the cluster while delivering high performance and virtually
infinite scalability. With block, object and file storage combined on a single platform, Ceph provides a flexible
foundation for all your data storage needs.
Benefits of Ceph with Silicon Mechanics
Ceph offers a great storage architecture which delivers easily scalable object, block and file-based storage under a unified system.
Lower Costs
An open-source solution means no licensing fees, and software-defined technology means no more expensive, proprietary hardware.
Thin Provisioning
Thin provisioning ensures that storage space is not occupied until data is written, enabling faster cloning of virtual machines.
Automatic Data Protection
Ceph automatically replicates data to at least three nodes. Data is stored in erasure-coded pools, a method that breaks data into small fragments and stores it in a distributed manner for greater data protection.
High-Performance Object Storage
From video delivery networks and cloud DVR to network functions virtualization, Ceph delivers high-performance object storage for the most demanding workloads.
Flexible Storage
Unify storage management with one platform for block, object and file storage.
Industry-Standard Hardware
Build a storage cluster using commodity servers and disks to lower the cost of storing data.
Unlimited Scalability
Manage as many nodes as you need, as one consistent storage system.
