Our First Webinar – Getting Started With Ceph

Yesterday was another milestone for our Inktank scrapbook. We hosted our first webinar titled “Getting Started with Ceph”. Our technical marketing engineer/overall nice guy @klivansky presented the webinar, which lasted one hour and covered the basics of getting setup with Ceph.

He covered…

• An introduction into Ceph and Inktank
• A description of the Ceph architecture and key components
• The steps of setting up a virtualized Ceph cluster, which included:
• Creating a VirtualBox
• Preparing the VMs for creating the Ceph cluster
• Installing Ceph on all VMs from the client
• Configuring Ceph on all the server nodes and the client
• Experimenting with Ceph’s Virtual Block Device (RBD)
• Experimenting with the Ceph distributed filesystem
• Unmounting, stopping Ceph, and shuting down the VMs safely
