Hey folks, We will be having a Ceph science/research/big cluster call on Tuesday January 27th. This is an informal open call of community members mostly from hpc/htc/research/big cluster environments, though anyone is welcome, where we discuss whatever is on our minds regarding Ceph. Updates, outages, features, maintenance, etc...there is no single set presenter for the length of the meeting, but it is somewhat moderated to keep the conversation flowing. If anyone wants to discuss something specific they can add it to the pad linked below. If you have questions or comments, you are most welcome to contact me. We usually start each meeting with a brief 10-15 minutes talk given by a community member, but currently don't have one scheduled for this meeting.If you are interested in signing up to give a short talk for a meeting please let me know! It is a very informal talk.
