Re: why did openstack choose ceph (and not glusterfs)
Hi,
I think the information "OpenStack choose Ceph" is from Ceph community, we can often heard about correlative talks from
Ceph community and blogs. There is a illusion that OpenStack decide to choose Ceph as backend.
Best regards,
Haomai Wang, UnitedStack Inc.
