             Summary: HBase on Ceph
                 Key: HBASE-13485
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-13485
             Project: HBase
          Issue Type: Task
            Reporter: Andrew Purtell


Ceph (http://ceph.com/ceph-storage/ is an open source, scalable, distributed, 
clustered block storage system with interesting dynamic data placement 
properties and support for tiered storage and multiple strategies for 
resilience. Ceph is a layered system: a block storage layer, known as RADOS, 
and a filesystem layer implemented on top of the block store, of varying 
degrees of stability.

It might be interesting to try out HBase on Ceph using the Hadoop filesystem 
binding for Ceph (https://github.com/ceph/cephfs-hadoop). Alternatively, 
implement "HBase filesystem" support for RADOS via the Java bindings 
(https://github.com/ceph/rados-java, via JNA). Considerations here will be 
similar to what we might want to do when HDFS decouples block management from 
namespace.
