Introduction

ICDC Storage is a reliable cloud system with various access interfaces that users can use to store data from projects, applications, and services.

Ceph Storage

The service is based on the Ceph storage system, which is a highly scalable, decentralized cluster consisting of server nodes. The cluster data is replicated, ensuring that the load is evenly distributed across nodes. This provides high fault tolerance and uninterrupted operation, as well as data availability even in the event of a disk or node failure.

ICDC Storage enables interaction with storage through S3/Swift and iSCSI protocols.

S3 Storage

The service supports the Amazon S3 and OpenStack Swift protocols, allowing applications, services, and individual users, regardless of platform, to work with various types of objects via standard HTTP/HTTPS requests.

Key features:

  • Object storage with S3 protocol support.
  • Creation and management of S3 users.
  • Creation, management, and editing of buckets.

To ensure proper functionality, you must use unique S3 user names and bucket names within a single Ceph cluster.

iSCSI Storage

The iSCSI Storage service allows the storage to be used as network block devices (disks) that can be connected to virtual machines, workstations, and servers via the iSCSI protocol.

Additional Protocols

If needed, additional Ceph storage features can be requested from the support team:

  • File storage, compatible with POSIX, with the ability to create snapshots instantly.
  • Storage in the form of a network hard drive using the rbd protocol.
