<div><div>I think I have asked my question not correctly, it is not for the cinder backend, I meant the shared storage for the instances which is shared by the compute nodes. Or can cinder also be used for this? Sorry if I ask stupid questions, OpenStack is still new for me ;-)</div>

<div dir="ltr">If you look at the user survey ( <a href="https://www.openstack.org/user-survey/survey-2016-q1/landing" target="_blank">https://www.openstack.org/user-survey/survey-2016-q1/landing</a> ) you can see what the current landscape looks like in terms of deployments. Ceph is by far the most commonly used storage backend for Cinder. </div>

<div>Hi,</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I wonder what is the recommendation for a shared storage for the compute nodes? At the moment we are using an iSCSI device which is served to all compute nodes with multipath, the filesystem is OCFS2. But this makes it a little unflexible in my opinion, because you have to decide how many compute nodes you will have in the future.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>So is there any suggestion which kind of shared storage to use for the compute nodes and what filesystem?</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Thanky,</div>
<div>Michael</div>
