CephBox - A Home Cloud Personal Storage Solution
summary
A DIY home NAS that runs a small Ceph cluster on Raspberry Pi hardware, automated install scripts and a web dashboard, claims to make a 24×7 running Ceph cluster at every home affordable. Uses RGW as an S3 endpoint to back up phones via Nextcloud and N-Photo, supports SSD/HDD or NVMe nodes, and implements a 3-2-1 archival strategy. Demonstration shows the cluster deployed, users and buckets created, apps configured, and daily photo backups working for a family-use case.
