Rook: Intro and Ceph Deep Dive

on YouTube ↗30m

" summary

Rook is an operator that deploys and manages Ceph inside Kubernetes, delivering block, file and S3-compatible object storage; recent v1.7 (Aug 2021) adds stretch cluster stable, protection against deleting a Ceph cluster with existing resources, and file-system mirroring support. The demo builds a PVC-based cluster on one node with two local block devices and successfully expands OSD count: 1 → 2; CSI features shown include volume expansion and snapshots/clones (beta), and migration from legacy flex volumes plus support for external Ceph and object-bucket claims.
