Red Hat® Ceph Storage and Network Solutions for Software Defined Infrastructure Frank Ober – Intel Non-Volatile Memory Solutions Group Tony Dempsey – Intel Network Platforms Group Dr. John Fitzpatrick – Openet Labs Data Center needs are Changing • From collecting to analyzing data • To virtualizing networks and storage • To delivering secure & compliant cloud like services 2 Traditional Data Center Resources are Limited Resource Internal Requests Resources 3 Intel Software Defined Infrastructure (SDI) Vision Dynamic, policy-driven resource management ▪ Abstraction of SW from HW, SERVICES DELIVERY provides flexibility and scalability App #1 App #2 App #3 App #4 ▪ Provisioning of resources Orchestration Software dynamically (pay-as-you-grow) Infrastructure Attributes ▪ Orchestration of diverse systems POWER PERFORMANCE THERMALS ULTILIZATION LOCATION LATENCY DURABILITY through application SLOs to enable seamless access Partner Hardware & Software Solutions SDI is not: Software defined Software Defined Software Defined • A single product or solution SERVERS STORAGE NETWORKING SDI is a framework: providing efficient, flexible, scalable standards-based compute, networking, and storage resources 4 Intel SDI Assets Intel® QuickAssist Intel® Storage Acceleration Library Technology (ISA-L) & Storage DPDK PROCESSOR PLATFORMS ® NETWORKING Intel Cache SSDs Acceleration AND FABRIC Software SOFTWARE ECOSYSTEM SERVER BOARDS Software & SYSTEMS Defined + Infrastructure SOLUTION REFERENCE ARCHITECTURES 5 Software Defined Storage 6 Software Defined Storage (SDS) Architecture DATA SERVICES APPLICATIONS SDS CONTROLLER • Part of the storage SW • Has visibility into and that runs in data plane to control of ALL storage optimize storage ORCHESTRATOR resources • For example: Data • Coordinates between Deduplication, Erasure Northbound API apps, orchestrator, and Code, Tiering storage systems DATA SERVICES SDS CONTROLLER • Allocates storage resources to meet SLAs Southbound API STORAGE SYSTEM STORAGE SYSTEM STORAGE SYSTEM STORAGE SYSTEM STORAGE SYSTEM [SAN] [Capacity] [DAS] [Performance] [NAS] Node Node 7 SDS Vision to Action • SDS will provide a convenient way to manage all storage in the datacenter • Framework is still in development • So, how to get started with SDS? – Focus on the storage system layer – Implement scale-out storage systems from OEMs and ISVs built on standard high-volume servers Deploying storage systems on standard, high-volume servers today supports a seamless transition to SDI tomorrow 8 Advent of Solid-State Drives (SSDs) •CPU = 175x vs. HDD IO = 1.3x •SSDs $30/GB -> <$1/GB (‘08-’15) •IOs reach the spindles in a random fashion •Lower TCO than HDD ($, Watts, Space) •Gets worse with higher # of apps or VMs per •$ / IOPS better for SSDs ($0.01 vs $0.80) LUN •SSDs are reliable (2MHr MTBF) SSDs are a cost effective, reliable means to remove the storage bottleneck * Performance and cost figures are estimates for informational purposes only and may vary 9 Red Hat® Ceph Storage • Ceph is an open-source, massively scalable, software-defined storage system which provides object, block and file system storage in a single platform. It runs on commodity hardware—saving you costs, giving you flexibility—and because it’s in the Linux kernel, it’s easy to consume. • Object Store (RADOSGW) Application Application Host/VM Client – A bucket based REST gateway compatible with S3 and swift Ceph Ceph Block Ceph Object Device Distributed • File System (Ceph FS) Ceph Object Gateway (RBD) File System Library (RADOS Reliable and (CephFS) – A POSIX-compliant distributed file system (LIBRADOS) Gateway) fully Posix- Allows applications distributed compliant Restful block device to directly access g ateway for distributed • Block device service (RBD) file system Ceph Object object storage – OpenStack native support Storage – Cinder-backend – Glance-backend Ceph Object Storage RADOS – Reliable, Autonomous, Distributed Object Store – Kernel client and QEMU/KVM driver Self-healing, self-managing intelligent storage nodes 10 Ceph Design Considerations • Consistency of an SSD Caching Drive within Ceph is key to overall consistent performance • The developers (technical documentation), warn about using the most consistent drives possible. Drives that protect the data. • Relatively inexpensive SSDs are often hiding issues that you need to find. http://ceph.com/docs/master/start/hardware-recommendations/#data-storage 11 Open Source Virtual Storage Manager for Ceph VSM is designed for a bundled ceph storage appliance, it creates a ceph cluster and does management plus monitoring.
