Canonical-led talks

provide a demonstration, and discuss future plans to add CephFS and RGW support.

Improving Ceph economics with QAT hardware offload

Benchmarking: repeatable & comparable

Sustaining Software Engineer Trent Lloyd will be delivering a technical presentation, exploring the methodology behind consistent benchmarking.  Storage systems are notoriously difficult to benchmark, especially when relying on synthetic benchmarks.  Evolutions in hardware, different system architectures and the tools used make for even more gotchas too! Thursday 5 December at 15:10 CET.

Meet with us at Cephalocon

Come talk to us at our booth to hear what is changing in the storage industry. How can open source Ceph play a role in the modern data center? And, how can Canonical help you meet your objectives?

Scaling and complexity are the most significant challenges faced by any storage administrator or architect. Open source scale out storage technology like Ceph presents the opportunity to break free from proprietary systems and vendor lock in.

If you are interested in how open source Ceph can be used to deliver reliable and scalable storage our team will be happy to demonstrate our software and share our insights.
