Remote Replication in MicroCeph: RBD and Beyond - Utkarsh Bhatt, Canonical Remote replication (for block, file, and object workload) is a highly desirable feature for backup, migration, and disaster recovery. Ceph offers a highly capable but non-homogenous user experience for remote replication across different workloads (RBD mirroring, CephFS mirroring, and RGW Multisite). The Squid release of MicroCeph introduces a new set of APIs that expose standardized procedures for remote cluster awareness and remote replication for the mentioned Ceph workloads. This lightning talk will highlight implementation details while demoing RBD remote replication in MicroCeph and plans for CephFs and RGW remote replication roadmap.
