Writes in Ceph are synchronous, so keep in mind that any increase in latency will decrease the write performance/latency on your Ceph cluster. > AFAICS, Ceph does not support data encryption at connection level yet, > so we would have to setup VPN links between the two cluster networks. > This means extra configuration, maintenance and overhead. > > How far away is TLS support or something similar for the Ceph > connections?

You might call that a VPN obviously, but IPSec can also just encrypt packets between nodes.
