  • Are small ceph clusters viable?

    Overbuilt and OTT? Sure... but this works fantastically for my use case. I have current backups of everything except my media library because of the size of it; my VM's are all backed up to my Synology nightly using Backy2, my application data gets dumped to that same Synology NAS nightly as well, and all of that also gets synced to Glacier deep storage once a week using Duplicity. I'm going to be adding a new ZFS array later in the year to replace my Synology and hopefully I'll build it out with enough storage to take my media library as well.
