Dear Cephers,

I am thinking of designing a cephfs or S3 cluster, with a target to achieve a 
minimum of 50GB/s (write) bandwidth. For each node, I prefer 4U 36x 3.5" 
Supermicro server with 36x 12TB 7200K RPM HDDs, 2x Intel P4610 1.6TB NVMe SSD 
as DB/WAL, a single CPU socket with AMD 7302, and 256GB DDR4 memory. Each node 
comes with 2x 25Gb networking in mode 4 bonded. 8+3 EC will be used. 

My questions are the following: 

1   How many nodes should be deployed in order to achieve a minimum of 50GB/s, 
if possible, with the above hardware setting?

2   How many Cephfs MDS are required? (suppose 1MB request size), and how many 
clients are needed for reach a total of 50GB/s?

3   From the perspective of getting the maximum bandwidth, which one should i 
choose, CephFS or Ceph S3?

Any comments, suggestions, or improvement tips are warmly welcome 

best regards,

Samuel
