This project, freelancer-ceph-k8s, integrates Ceph and Kubernetes to provide a scalable and reliable storage solution for containerized applications. Ceph is a distributed storage system that ensures data redundancy and fault tolerance by distributing data across multiple nodes in a cluster. Kubernetes, on the other hand, is a container orchestration platform that automates the deployment, scaling, and management of containerized applications.
- Ceph: Acts as the underlying storage backend, providing block, file, and object storage capabilities.
- Kubernetes: Manages the deployment and scaling of containerized applications, ensuring high availability and resource efficiency.
- Integration Layer: Connects Ceph and Kubernetes, enabling seamless communication and data storage operations between the two systems.
-
Scalability: Ceph Rook allows for seamless scaling of storage resources to meet changing demands in Kubernetes environments.
-
Reliability: Ensures data redundancy and fault tolerance through Ceph's distributed storage system, enhancing data reliability for containerized applications.
-
Integration: Facilitates smooth communication and data storage operations between Ceph and Kubernetes through an integration layer.
-
Dynamic Resource Allocation: Enables Kubernetes to dynamically scale applications based on resource requirements, leveraging Ceph's scalable storage backend.
-
High Availability: Ceph Rook enhances availability by distributing data across multiple nodes in a cluster, reducing the risk of data loss.
- Containers running on Kubernetes interact with Ceph storage resources through persistent volumes.
- Ceph ensures data replication and distribution across the cluster to prevent data loss.
- Kubernetes dynamically scales the application based on resource demands, leveraging Ceph's scalable storage backend.
