Another interesting setup is the combination of CEPH with LIO. LIO is the default SCSI target in Linux since 2.6.38. LIO is abale to export a standard Linux block device via iSCSI, FC, FCoE and Infiniband. CEPH provides a RBD (RADOS block device) which can bes used as a backend for LIO. The result will be a redundant highly scalable SAN storage which can be uses in all datacenter environments as a replacement of existing proprietary SAN technologies. The intagration with all existing hypervisors is possible through standard protocols like iSCSI, FC or IB.
