Ceph Object Storage Performance Secrets and Ceph Data Lake SolutionKaran Singh
In this presentation, i have explained how Ceph Object Storage Performance can be improved drastically together with some object storage best practices, recommendations tips. I have also covered Ceph Shared Data Lake which is getting very popular.
This presentation provides an overview of the Dell PowerEdge R730xd server performance results with Red Hat Ceph Storage. It covers the advantages of using Red Hat Ceph Storage on Dell servers with their proven hardware components that provide high scalability, enhanced ROI cost benefits, and support of unstructured data.
Storage 101: Rook and Ceph - Open Infrastructure Denver 2019Sean Cohen
Starting from the basics, we explore the advantages of using Rook as a Storage operator to serve Ceph storage, the leading Software-Defined Storage platform in the Open Source world. Ceph automates the internal storage management, while Rook automates the user-facing operations and effectively turns a storage technology into a service transparent to the user. The combination delivers an impressive improvement in UX and provides the ideal storage platform for Kubernetes.
A comprehensive examination of use cases and open problems will complement our review of the Rook architecture. We will deep-dive into what Rook does well, what it does not do (yet), and what trade-offs using a storage operator involves operationally. With live access to a running cluster, we will showcase Rook in action as we discuss its capabilities.

Revisiting CephFS MDS and mClock QoS SchedulerYongseok Oh
This presents the CephFS performance scalability and evaluation results. Specifically, it addresses some technical issues such as multi core scalability, cache size, static pinning, recovery, and QoS.
Ceph is an open source project, which provides software-defined, unified storage solutions. Ceph is a distributed storage system which is massively scalable and high-performing without any single point of failure. From the roots, it has been designed to be highly scalable, up to exabyte level and beyond while running on general-purpose commodity hardware.
Ceph scale testing with 10 Billion ObjectsKaran Singh
In this performance testing, we ingested 10 Billion objects into the Ceph Object Storage system and measured its performance. We have observed deterministic performance, check out this presentation to know the details.
In this session, you'll learn how RBD works, including how it:
Uses RADOS classes to make access easier from user space and within the Linux kernel.
Implements thin provisioning.
Builds on RADOS self-managed snapshots for cloning and differential backups.
Increases performance with caching of various kinds.
Uses watch/notify RADOS primitives to handle online management operations.
Integrates with QEMU, libvirt, and OpenStack.
Ceph data services in a multi- and hybrid cloud worldSage Weil
IT organizations of the future (and present) are faced with managing infrastructure that spans multiple private data centers and multiple public clouds. Emerging tools and operational patterns like kubernetes and microservices are easing the process of deploying applications across multiple environments, but the achilles heel of such efforts remains that most applications require large quantities of state, either in databases, object stores, or file systems. Unlike stateless microservices, state is hard to move.
Ceph is known for providing scale-out file, block, and object storage within a single data center, but it also includes a robust set of multi-cluster federation capabilities. This talk will cover how Ceph's underlying multi-site capabilities complement and enable true portability across cloud footprints--public and private--and how viewing Ceph from a multi-cloud perspective has fundamentally shifted our data services roadmap, especially for Ceph object storage.

How Netflix Tunes EC2 Instances for PerformanceBrendan Gregg
CMP325 talk for AWS re:Invent 2017, by Brendan Gregg. "
At Netflix we make the best use of AWS EC2 instance types and features to create a high performance cloud, achieving near bare metal speed for our workloads. This session will summarize the configuration, tuning, and activities for delivering the fastest possible EC2 instances, and will help other EC2 users improve performance, reduce latency outliers, and make better use of EC2 features. We'll show how we choose EC2 instance types, how we choose between EC2 Xen modes: HVM, PV, and PVHVM, and the importance of EC2 features such SR-IOV for bare-metal performance. SR-IOV is used by EC2 enhanced networking, and recently for the new i3 instance type for enhanced disk performance as well. We'll also cover kernel tuning and observability tools, from basic to advanced. Advanced performance analysis includes the use of Java and Node.js flame graphs, and the new EC2 Performance Monitoring Counter (PMC) feature released this year."

Peanut Butter and jelly: Mapping the deep Integration between Ceph and OpenStackSean Cohen
Ceph is the most widely deployed storage technology used with OpenStack, most often because it's an open source, massively scalable, unified software-defined storage solution. Its popularity is also due to its unique and optimized technical integration with the OpenStack services and its pure-software approach to scaling. In this session, we'll review how Ceph is integrated into Nova, Glance, Keystone, Cinder, and Manila and demonstrate why using traditional storage products won’t give you the full benefits of an elastic cloud infrastructure. We’ll also cover the flexible deployment options, available through Red Hat Enterprise Linux OpenStack Platform and Red Hat Ceph Storage, for seamless operations and key scenarios like disaster recovery. We'll discuss architectural options for deploying a multisite OpenStack cluster and cover the varying levels of maturity in the OpenStack services for configuring multisite. This session will also show how other technologies are using OpenStack Ceph to increase performance and reduce power consumption, such as Intel SSDs. This will include reference architectures and best practices for Ceph and SSDs.

Search and Society: Reimagining Information Access for Radical FuturesBhaskar Mitra
The field of Information retrieval (IR) is currently undergoing a transformative shift, at least partly due to the emerging applications of generative AI to information access. In this talk, we will deliberate on the sociotechnical implications of generative AI for information access. We will argue that there is both a critical necessity and an exciting opportunity for the IR community to re-center our research agendas on societal needs while dismantling the artificial separation between the work on fairness, accountability, transparency, and ethics in IR and the rest of IR research. Instead of adopting a reactionary strategy of trying to mitigate potential social harms from emerging technologies, the community should aim to proactively set the research agenda for the kinds of systems we should build inspired by diverse explicitly stated sociotechnical imaginaries. The sociotechnical imaginaries that underpin the design and development of information access technologies needs to be explicitly articulated, and we need to develop theories of change in context of these diverse perspectives. Our guiding future imaginaries must be informed by other academic fields, such as democratic theory and critical theory, and should be co-developed with social science scholars, legal scholars, civil rights and social justice activists, and artists, among others.

Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024Tobias Schneck
As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other?
Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.
