Hi Alfredo,

Please take a look at SPDK:

https://docs.openstack.org/cinder/latest/configuration/block-storage/drivers/spdk-volume-driver.html

I can provide you with more information if you feel that this is the storage type you would like to use.

Regards,

Maciej

Subject: [CINDER] Distributed storage alternatives

Hi all.

we 'd like to explore storage back end alternatives to CEPH for Openstack

I am aware of GlusterFS but what would you recommend for distributed storage like Ceph and specifically for block device provisioning?

Of course must be:

Reliable
Fast
Capable of good performance over WAN given a good network back end

Both open source and commercial technologies and ideas are welcome.

Cheers

Alfredo
