I don't know very much about using that specific switch with 10GbE and
Ceph. Having said that, Mellanox switches are pretty fast and often
used in HPC deployments. I'd expect it should be good from a
stability/performance point of view, at least on the IB side. If you
aren't familiar with IB, make sure to understand how it differs from
Ethernet, especially as it relates to network topology. It's cheap and
fast, but not always easy to setup if you've got a lot of existing
infrastructure.

Hi,
I'm looking for a fast and cheap 10gbe ethernet switch.
I just found this:
Mellanox SX1012
http://www.mellanox.com/page/products_dyn?product_family=163&mtag=sx1012
48port 10Gbe | 12ports 46gbit for around 5000€.
Seem that infiniband (roce) is also available.
Does somebody use it for ceph ? if yes, what about stability|performance ?
with comming rdma support in ceph, it seem to be the perfect solution (and
price is very good).
