Description

Unlimited Fileserver with Samba CTDB and CephFS - Robert Sander, Heinlein Support GmbH

The presentation shows the setup of an unlimited file service cluster running Samba CTDB and using CephFS as the backend storage.
It will show that using clustered Samba can achieve very high redundancy combined with the near limitless storage size of a Ceph storage system.
In addition to Samba the setup also allows to export CephFS via NFS.
