Funny enough, I just had a call with Redhat where the OpenStack engineer was voicing his frustration that there wasn't any movement on RBD for oVirt. This is important to me because I'm building out a user-facing private cloud that just isn't going to be big enough to justify OpenStack and its administrative overhead. But, I already have 1.75PB (soon to be 2PB) of CephFS in production. So, it puts me in a really difficult design position.

I was as much as told by Redhat in a sales call that they push Gluster
for oVirt/RHEV and Ceph for OpenStack, and don't have any plans to
change that in the short term. (note this was about a year ago, i
think - so this isn't super current information).
I seem to recall the hangup was that oVirt had no orchestration
capability for RBD comparable to OpenStack, and that CephFS wasn't
(yet?) viable for use as a "POSIX filesystem" oVirt storage domain.
Personally, I feel like Redhat is worried about competing with
themselves with GlusterFS versus CephFS and is choosing to focus on
Gluster as a filesystem, and Ceph as everything minus the filesystem.
Which is a shame, as I'm a fan of both Ceph and oVirt and would love
to use my existing RHEV infrastructure to bring Ceph into my
environment.
