Ceph-as-a-Service by VM2Cloud
Unified, Scalable, Distributed Storage. Delivered as a Managed Cloud Service.
Enterprise-grade storage without operational overhead. Block, object, and file storage for cloud, AI, and analytics.
What is Ceph-as-a-Service?
A fully managed, production-grade software-defined storage platform engineered for cloud workloads, AI, analytics, and modern enterprise applications. VM2Cloud deploys, operates, monitors, and optimizes Ceph clusters with automated scaling, 24×7 observability, dedicated SLA-backed support, and multi-region architectures.
You consume Ceph as a storage cloud—without dealing with cluster balancing, OSD failures, CRUSH maps, replication, erasure coding, or hardware lifecycle tasks. Our managed Ceph service exposes block storage (RBD) for VMs and containers, object storage (S3-compatible) for applications and backups, and file storage (CephFS) for POSIX workloads and shared environments.
