Rapid scalability
Croit offers a REST API, event scripts and configuration templates that allow you to customize the storage solution to your individual needs. Add or remove storage from your cluster as required, and Ceph will intelligently adjust data distribution automatically.
Outstanding reliability
Thanks to sophisticated features, all data is always guaranteed to be stored correctly on the underlying media and measures such as scrubbing are taken to prevent bit rotting.
“Being avid Ceph users ourselves for many years, we were keen to bring all our knowledge about Ceph, Linux and networks into a storage solution that we believe to be outstanding.”
Combine block, file, and object storage
Ceph is a general-purpose storage, that combines object, block, and file storage in a unified system without the need for the investment in expensive hardware. Today It serves as the basis for countless cloud, VM, backup, archive and other installations and can be relied upon for reliable data backups, flexible storage options and rapid scalability. Thanks to numerous additional protocols, it is also possible to connect almost any device beyond the modern proprietary protocols.
