I got the task to connect a Windows client to our existing ceph cluster.

Tiger Bridge will extend your NTFS (or ReFS) file system into a Ceph cluster seamlessly. This is a software only gateway with an HSM tiering and synchronization engine that turns inactive files on the NTFS volume into zero-byte stub-files to free up space locally (it recalls data automatically when needed). Learn more about Tiger Bridge - https://www.tiger-technology.com/software/tiger-bridge/ NB. - Note that the trial version (3.7.x) has a known issue with Ceph targets. Contact me directly (bernard at tiger-technology.com) if you would like a trial version for Ceph.
