All,

I am investigating the use of Ceph for a video surveillance project with the following minimum block storage requirements:

385 Mbps of constant write bandwidth
100TB storage requirement
5250 IOPS (size of ~8 KB)

I believe 2 replicas would be acceptable. We intend to use large capacity (2 or 3TB) SATA 7200rpm 3.5" drives, if the IOPS work out properly.

Is there a method / formula to estimate IOPS for RDB? Specifically I would like to understand:

- How does replica count affect read/write IOPS?

- I'm trying to understand best practice for when to optimize server count, drives per server, and drive capacity as it relates to IOPS. Is there a point of diminishing I/O performance using server chassis with lots of drive slots, like the 36-drive Supermicro SC847a?


Thanks,
Mike
