Ceph is an open-source distributed software solution. It is designed to serve block, file, and object workloads for a cluster system. There are a lot of advantages when using Ceph. Ceph supports distributed object storage on multiple cluster nodes, provides redundancy between cluster nodes and is able to scale out cluster storage nodes with Ceph. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ceph is able to run on commodity hardware without vendor lock-in. Moreover, Ceph is also a unified storage infrastructure that supports storage clusters that may grow or shrink and allows to add and remove hardware while the Ceph cluster is online.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This lab below is used to deploy three Proxmox nodes on the Ceph clsuter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is interesting to see there is no downtime when doing live migration VM2 on Proxmox node 2 to node 3 in the Ceph cluster.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
