Over the next couple of weeks, Dell’s new OpenStack-Powered Cloud Solution partner Inktank will host a series of four webinars providing a step by step walk through the cloud storage capabilities of Ceph. Ceph is ideal for the cloud as it combines object and block storage in one open source solution.
We will conduct one webinar per week, starting on January 17th (duration: 60 minutes).
