Protecting the Galaxy: OpenStack DR with Ceph

The terrific trio composed of Sébastien Han, Sean Cohen and yours truly descended on Austin this week for the recurring ritual of the OpenStack Summit. Our mission: to save the galaxy – or at least your data. Séb and Sean covered architectural options for disaster recovery in OpenStack and I introduced the capabilities provided by Ceph’s newfangled RBD Mirroring feature in last week’s 10.2.0 (“Jewel”) release.

UPDATE: The recording of our OpenStack Summit session is now live on the OpenStack Foundation’s YouTube channel.

Our slides are available as a PDF and can be viewed inline below — we are including even our backup slides for additional Gory detail ™ value:

See you all in Barça this fall!
