Is there even a benefit?
Decoupling from underlying host OS. On a test cluster I'm running Ubuntu
Focal on the host (and a bunch of other stuff, hyperconverged setup) and
for testing purposes I needed to run Ceph Mimic there. No Mimic (or
Nautilus packges for that matter) available on Ubuntu Focal. In that
case it can be convenient to "just run a container". Sure you can build
them yourselves. And with the pxe way of deploying you have more
flexibility, but most setups (I guess) are not like that.
So, for me that was a benefit. I can think of other potential benefits,
but I don't want to go there, asof yet, as I still need to convince
myself containers are a proper solution to deploy software as far as
Ceph is concerned. But it does look promising.
