Ok, then Ceph probably doesn't fit for me. I wanted to provide a backup platform for me, my family and my friends. Speed is not relevant, but long-term reliability. So I'm depending on home internet connections and VPN. At the moment I'm mostly using wireguard, but I could switch to openvpn to reduce packet loss (but this will increase latency). But I still don't understand why ceph runs rock-solid as long as there are backfills and recoveries?
