technical white
paper.
The Kunpeng acceleration engine
of the Kunpeng processors on
TaiShan 200 servers performs
calculation for MD5 verication,
unleashing the maximum
computing power of CPUs and
dramatically improving the write
bandwidth.
The installation of Ceph block
storage, object storage, and le
storage is adapted to the Huaweideveloped openEuler OS. The
openEuler content is added to the
installation guide.
The Bcache installation and usage
guides are provided based on
CentOS and openEuler. Bcache is a
block layer cache of the Linux
kernel. It uses SSDs as the cache of
HDDs for acceleration.
The technical white paper brief
introduces the Huawei Kunpeng
SDS solution and explains the all-
ash, balanced, and cold storage
congurations based on TaiShan
200 servers.

Update Description Document
overview of the
Huawei
Kunpeng SDS
solution.
The Huawei Kunpeng SDS solution
is based on the Kunpeng hardware
platform. With Huawei-developed
leading processors, NICs, SSDs,
management chips, and AI chips
and open-source Ceph distributed
storage software, Huawei provides
customers with an SDS solution
covering block storage,
storage, and object storage
services.

Ceph installation
and deployment
guides.
3 Released the
Ceph tuning
guide and
related
documents.
Ceph can be installed and
deployed manually or
automatically. The automatic
deployment is based a Huaweideveloped automatic deployment
kit. Fill in the parameter table and
the system automatically performs
the automatic deployment. The
manual deployment uses the
ceph-deploy or ceph-ansible
installation tool. The ceph-ansible
tool requires basic knowledge on
Ceph and Ansible. The ceph-deploy
tool applies to scenarios where
block,
le, and object storage
services are deployed separately.
The documents explain how to
perform Ceph tuning at the
hardware, OS, and software layers,
so as to unleash the maximum
performance of Ceph on the
Kunpeng platform. In addition,
they explain how to compile Ceph
and Bcache source code to meet
specic tuning requirements.

When an x86-based Ceph
distributed storage cluster can no
longer provide sucient
performance and capacity to meet
service requirements, you can use
Kunpeng servers to deploy Ceph
for horizontal expansion,
maximizing the return on
investment.
These troubleshooting cases
explain how to resolve common
problems in Ceph deployment,
tuning, and testing.
