This document summarizes a company's experience deploying the CEPH storage system in a production environment. They migrated about 50% of their storage to CEPH running on existing hardware with 6 object storage devices and 5 monitors. CEPH eliminated their single point of failure, allowed easy creation and destruction of virtual machine images, and provided self-healing capabilities. Some current issues include balancing bandwidth and latency for replicas and deciding how to allocate placement groups for different situations. Overall, the company is pleased with CEPH for providing the virtualized storage capabilities they desired.
