Starting with design goals and planning steps that should be undertaken to ensure successful deployments, you will be guided through to setting up and deploying the Ceph cluster, with the help of orchestration tools. Key areas of Ceph including Bluestore, Erasure coding and cache tiering will be covered with help of examples. Development of applications which use Librados and Distributed computations with shared object classes are also covered. A section on tuning will take you through the process of optimisizing both Ceph and its supporting infrastructure. Finally, you will learn to troubleshoot issues and handle various scenarios where Ceph is likely not to recover on its own.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBy the end of the book, you will be able to successfully deploy and operate a resilient high performance Ceph cluster.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStyle and Approach\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eA practical guide which has each chapter explaining the concept, sharing tips and tricks and a use case to implement the most powerful features of Ceph \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Packt Publishing, Limited","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47046769737968,"sku":"9781785888786","price":44.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781785888786_p0.jpg?v=1763729336","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781785888786","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
