MicroCeph: What, Why and Who Is It for
summary
A compact Ceph distribution packaged as a snap package targets small deployments by bundling userland, isolating services, and adding a lightweight management layer backed by distributed SQLite. Demo boots a three-node cluster on three VMs, adds three OSDs, enables a RADOS Gateway S3 endpoint, and successfully stores blobs. Roadmap includes automatic OSD encryption, network-namespace conveniences, easy upgrades and automated CRUSH adjustments for single-node use. Implementation tracks the Quincy Ceph release and relies on snap isolation so no Debian-only package is offered.
