In the 2018 Ceph survey (
https://ceph.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/07/Ceph-User-Survey-2018-Slides.pdf slide #56), the number one request to the question “Where should the Ceph community focus its efforts?” was “Performance”. In response, Intel is leading a community effort in driving a series of innovations in the upstream codebase as well as hardware technologies that can provide Ceph users with more IOPS, lower tail latencies, and lower-cost all-flash capacity storage. In this session, Intel Principal Engineer Tushar Gohad will discuss the upstream code contributions that remove performance bottlenecks and enable new use cases. Additionally, Tushar will discuss recent Intel hardware technologies that provide better performance and better value solutions than previous generations.
