Hi, One of the use-cases I'm currently testing is the possibility to replace a NFS storage cluster using a Ceph cluster. The idea I have is to use a server as an intermediate gateway. On the client side it will expose a NFS share and on the Ceph side it will mount the CephFS using mount.ceph. The whole network that holds the Ceph environment is 10G connected and when I use the same server as S3 gateway I can store files rather quickly. When I use the same server as a NFS gateway putting data on the Ceph cluster is really very slow. The reason we want to do this is that we want to create a dedicated Ceph storage network and have all clients that need some data access either use S3 or NFS to access the data. I want to do this this way because I don't want to give the clients in some specific networks full access to the Ceph filesystem. Has anyone tried this before? Is this the way to go, or are there better ways to fix this? -- Met vriendelijke groet / Best regards, Jan Hugo Prins Infra and Isilon storage consultant Better.be B.V.
