In just a few weeks, Cephalocon will be held at CERN in Geneva. After last year’s successful Cephalocon in Amsterdam, which was the first live event held since the pandemic, it is great to return to regular community gatherings .
Canonical Ubuntu is proud to be sponsoring the event. At Cephalocon this year, you will be able to meet the Canonical Ceph team and discuss the benefits of using Ceph for your storage needs, across private clouds, edge, or cloud-adjacent settings.
Canonical Software Engineer Utkarsh Bhat will discuss the implementation of RBD remote replication in MicroCeph on Wednesday 4 December at 14:05 CET. During his talk he will also
provide a demonstration, and discuss future plans to add CephFS and RGW support.
Canonical Product Manager Phil Williams will deliver a talk discussing how Intel’s Quick Assist Technology (QAT) can be used to not only increase the performance of a Ceph cluster, but also to reduce the cost per GB stored. Wednesday 4 December at 17:25 CET.
Sustaining Software Engineer Trent Lloyd will be delivering a technical presentation, exploring the methodology behind consistent benchmarking. Storage systems are notoriously difficult to benchmark, especially when relying on synthetic benchmarks. Evolutions in hardware, different system architectures and the tools used make for even more gotchas too! Thursday 5 December at 15:10 CET.
Come talk to us at our booth to hear what is changing in the storage industry. How can open source Ceph play a role in the modern data center? And, how can Canonical help you meet your objectives?
Scaling and complexity are the most significant challenges faced by any storage administrator or architect. Open source scale out storage technology like Ceph presents the opportunity to break free from proprietary systems and vendor lock in.
If you are interested in how open source Ceph can be used to deliver reliable and scalable storage our team will be happy to demonstrate our software and share our insights.
You can find out more about Canonical Ceph here.
We look forward to seeing you there, for more details on Cephalocon, and to sign up see the event page here.
