Hello, [re-added the list] Also try to leave a line-break, paragraph between quoted and new text, your mail looked like it was all written by me...

Earlier disks of "Intel® SSD DC P3608 Series 1.6TB NVMe PCIe 3.0 x4 Solid State Drive" were used, their speed of all satisfies, but with increase of volume of storage, the price of such cluster very strongly grows and therefore there was an idea to use Ceph. > > > >You may want to tell us more about your environment, use case and in > >particular what your clients are. > >Large amounts of data usually means graphical or scientific data, > >extremely high speed (IOPS) requirements usually mean database > >like applications, which one is it, or is it a mix? > >This is a mixed project, with combined graphics and science.

Virtualization - oVirt. Stop right there. oVirt, despite being from RedHat, doesn't really support Ceph directly all that well, last I checked. That is probably where you get the idea/need for FC from. If anyhow possible, you do NOT want another layer and protocol conversion between Ceph and the VMs, like a FC gateway or iSCSI or NFS. So if you're free to choose your Virtualization platform, use KVM/qemu at the bottom and something like Openstack, OpenNebula, ganeti, Pacemake with KVM resource agents on top. >Clients on 40 GB ethernet are connected to servers of virtualization. Your VM clients (if using RBD instead of FC) and the end-users could use the same network infrastructure. >Clients on Windows. > Customers use their software. It is written by them. About the base I do not know, probably not. The processing results are stored in conventional files. In total about 160 GB. 1 image file being 160GB? > We need very quickly to process these images, so as not to cause dissatisfaction among customers. :) Per minute. Explain. Writing 160GB/minute is going to be a challenge on many levels. Even with 40Gb/s networks this assumes no contention on the network OR the storage backend... > > > > > >For example, how were the above NVMes deployed and how did they serve data > >to the clients? > >The fiber channel bit in your HW list below makes me think you're using > >VMware, FC and/or iSCSI right now. > >Data is stored on the SSD disk 1.6TB NVMe, and processed and stored directly on it. In one powerful server. Gave for this task. Used 40 GB ethernet. Server - CentOS 7 So you're going from a single server with all NVMe storage to a distributed storage.

But, it is the most sensitive data processing time. Even in the background and can be a slower process more data. Their treatment is not so nervous clients. Still no getting it, but it seems more and more like 160GB/s. > > > > > >> - There must be created a high-speed storage of the SSD drives 36 TB volume with read / write speed tends to SSD P3608 > >How is that different to the point above? The data of this volume can be processed in the background, running in parallel with the processing of 160 GB. The speed of processing is not so important. Previously, the entire amount was placed in a server on Ssd disk lesser performance. Therefore, I declare Ceph cluster ssd drives of the same of volume that can quickly read and write data. > > > > > >> - Must be created store 1.2 PB with the access speed than the bigger, the better ... > >Ceph scales well. > >> - Must have triple redundancy > >Also not an issue, depending on how you define this. > >Standard means Ceph .

I in fact have a large store to the HDD. For Ceph need a separate disk for logs. That's why I singled him out for logs. Relatively inexpensive enough of volume. Approximately 10 GB - 1 OSD. SATA drives it drives HDD. Logs aren't that big really with OSDs. Read up on "Ceph SSD journals". > > > > > >> e.
