Hello Cephers,
I wanted to let you know about a new library that is now available in master. It's called “libcephd” and it enables the embedding of Ceph daemons like MON and OSD (and soon MDS and RGW) into other applications. Using libcephd it's possible to create new applications that closely integrate Ceph storage without bringing in the full distribution of Ceph and its dependencies. For example, you can build storage application that runs the Ceph daemons on limited distributions like CoreOS natively or along side a hypervisor for hyperconverged scenarios. The goal is to enable a broader ecosystem of solutions built around Ceph and reduce some of the friction for adopting Ceph today. See http://pad.ceph.com/p/embedded-ceph for the blueprint. We (Quantum) are using embedded Ceph in a new open-source project called Rook (https://github.com/rook/rook and https://rook.io). Rook integrates embedded Ceph in a deployment that is targeting
cloud-native applications.
Please feel free to respond with feedback. Also if you’re in the Seattle area next week stop by for a meetup on embedded Ceph and its use in Rook

Thanks!
