I see in the roadmap that is slated for April. I have been testing Ceph for about 1 month now with limited issues and would like to place this file system into our production environment as a backup target. We would be willing to purchase a reasonable fee-based support contract to augment our limited staff here. Currently there is no commercial support available. There have been discussions about this, but I'm not sure what the state is. I'm not Ceph developer not am I a member of the team, I'm just someone who is very enthusiastic about Ceph. >From what I've heard/read is that they are thinking about setting up a support program when v1.0 is out. If Ceph is meeting your demands at this point in time it's up to you if you want to take it into semi-production. During the day there will be people hanging around in the IRC (I'm online between 09:00 and 19:00 GMT +1), so you are free to ask around when you run into troubles. Feedback from (semi-)production env's is needed to make Ceph even better, so please, do so! But, like I always, make sure you have a good backup of your data! > > My apologies if this is the incorrect forum for discussions like this, but I am not aware of any others. > Currently this is the right place, when the volume of the list becomes to high there will be a -users and -dev list (I guess).
