Question:
What does the future hold with regard to cephadm vs rpm/deb packages? If it is
now suggested to use cephadm and thus containers to deploy new clusters, what
does the future hold? Is there an intent, at sometime in the future, to no
longer support rpm/deb packages for Linux systems, and only support the
cephadm container method?
I am not asking to argue containers vs traditional bare metal installs. I am
just trying to plan for the future. Thanks
I am also interested in this question. For now you can argue that you are save with the os
packages, because the current containers are nothing else than a (different) os on a os.
This of course changes when you get containers that just having binaries (or something
small like alpine linux).
