The scenario is that we are recording HD Videos and end of the day we need to copy all these video files (each file has approx 15 TB ) to our storage system. 1)Which would be the best tech in storage to transfer these PBs size loads of videos to CEPH based object storage wirelessly. 2)How should I design my CEPH in the scale of PBs and make sure its future proof. 3)What are the latest hardware components I might require to accomplish this task? I am a software developer and am new to this domain. Kindly request all to provide the name of even the most basic of hardware components required for the setup so that I can do a cost estimation and compare with other techs. My novice solution so far: 1. Transmitting module if using WiFi (802.11ac (aka Gigabit Wifi) max 200 Mbps speed) to transfer a file of size 15 TB to CEPH Storage takes 7 days !! 2.CEPH needs to be configured with High Availability A SAN with FC networking in place (GEN 6 SANS) using NVMe SSD with HBAs that support NVMe over Fibre Channel giving a transfer rate of 16 Gbps to Host Server. Thanks for your help in advance. _______________________________________________ ceph-users mailing list ceph-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.ceph.com/listinfo.cgi/ceph-users-ceph.com
