Ceph RBD isn't a great protocol for storage-as-a-service because Ceph often requires a high level of version consistency between clients and the Ceph cluster. We would like to see NESE provide an alternative that would allow a wider range of clients to connect (without requiring every group to maintain their own rbd-to-X proxy service).
Completion Criteria
NERC provides a storage-as-a-service to its users without requiring every group to maintain their own rbd-to-X proxy service.
Description
[ ] Test Block Storage options
[ ] Test File Storage Options
[ ] Decide what option to go with
[ ] Implement it
[ ] Create extra issues if this is going to be a large project
