Ceph OSD

Ceph OSD, or Object Storage Device, is a key component of the Ceph storage system, which is designed for managing large amounts of data across many computers. Each OSD stores and retrieves data, ensuring it's replicated for safety and performance. When you save a file, it gets broken into pieces, spread across various OSDs, and each piece is stored securely. This distributed approach means that if one OSD fails, your data remains safe on others. Overall, Ceph OSD helps provide scalable, reliable, and efficient storage for everything from personal files to enterprise-level applications.
