How's the maturity of CephFS and how's the maturity of Ceph erasure code?
Hi all, I'm a rookie in CEPH. I want to ask two questions. One is the maturity of cephfs, the file system of CEPH, and whether it is recommended for production environment. The other is the maturity of CEPH's erasure code and whether it can be used in production environment. Are the above two questions explained in the official documents? I may not see where they are. Thank you! Fred Fan
Hello Fred, from hundreds of installations, we can say it is production ready and working fine if deployed and maintained correctly. As always it depends, but it works for a huge amount of use cases. -- Martin Verges Managing director Mobile: +49 174 9335695 E-Mail: martin.verges@croit.io Chat: https://t.me/MartinVerges croit GmbH, Freseniusstr. 31h, 81247 Munich CEO: Martin Verges - VAT-ID: DE310638492 Com. register: Amtsgericht Munich HRB 231263 Web: https://croit.io YouTube: https://goo.gl/PGE1Bx Am Di., 9.

Hi Martin, Sorry for late reply. I think maybe I understand what you said. Do you mean that the file system and erasure code of Ceph are ready enough for production, but it is strongly depends on deployment and maintance correctly. Besides your descripton, may I know where can I get such data and evidence to enhance my confidence. Thanks very much! I appreciate it.

That's how I read it. You do have to take care how you build clusters: type and amount of servers, network infra, etc. It all depends on the amount of redundancy, performance you want to achieve, and how much money you want to spend.
Besides your descripton, may I know where can I get such data and evidence to enhance my confidence.
Best way is to find out for yourself and your use case(s) with a PoC cluster. It's succesfully used in lots of places. Gr. Stefan

yes, no doubts
but it is strongly depends on deployment and maintance correctly.
yes

Sorry I can't. But as Stefan Kooman wrote, "Best way is to find out for yourself and your use case(s) with a PoC cluster" We use it for our own stuff and customers of croit use it in lot of installations. However nothing is better then a PoC to gain more confidence. -- Martin Verges Managing director Mobile: +49 174 9335695 E-Mail: martin.verges@croit.io Chat: https://t.me/MartinVerges croit GmbH, Freseniusstr. 31h, 81247 Munich CEO: Martin Verges - VAT-ID: DE310638492 Com. register: Amtsgericht Munich HRB 231263 Web: https://croit.io YouTube: https://goo.gl/PGE1Bx -- Martin Verges Managing director Mobile: +49 174 9335695 E-Mail: martin.verges@croit.io Chat: https://t.me/MartinVerges croit GmbH, Freseniusstr. 31h, 81247 Munich CEO: Martin Verges - VAT-ID: DE310638492 Com. register: Amtsgericht Munich HRB 231263 Web: https://croit.io YouTube: https://goo.gl/PGE1Bx On Wed, 31 Mar 2021 at 12:50, Fred <fanyuanli@163.com> wrote:
