Demystifying Hyper-Dense Ceph: How To Design for Large Capacity NVMe - Alessandro Goncalves, Solidigm & Mark Nelson, Clyso
High-capacity NVMe (30TB and beyond) is rapidly redefining the
economics of storage density, but not everyone trusts the tradeoffs.
Are you really putting your data at more risk by deploying
hyper-dense CEPH nodes? Or does this narrative collapse when you look
at modern CEPH's actual failure domain design, replication, and
erasure coding mechanisms?
"Does deploying hyper-dense Ceph nodes increase your risk?"
This session cuts through the FUD. We'll show-using real cluster math
and CEPH's architecture-that with thoughtful layout and the right
"low water marks" at the device, node, and rack level, your
availability and recovery SLAs don't degrade as density increases.
