Ceph Object Storage

Ceph Object Storage is a great choice for teams that want to manage their own, on-prem object storage rather than using a commercial cloud provider. Arraylake works great with Ceph Object Storage via the Ceph S3 API. You can use Ceph Object Storage as the location of your Chunkstore.

To use Ceph Object Storage with Arraylake:

Create a new object storage bucket (Ceph docs). For example, the bucket could be named my-arraylake-bucket.
Create a new BucketConfig to store the configuration for this bucket using either the Arraylake Python client or web app:

Web App
Python

Ceph bucket configuration — Add a new Ceph bucket

from arraylake import Client

client = Client()

client.create_bucket_config(
  org="earthmover",
  nickname="my-ceph-bucket",
  uri="s3://my-arraylake-bucket",
  extra_config={'endpoint_url': 'https://my.ceph.cluster'}
)

That's it! You're ready to create a Repository! 🎉
