Ceph is a massively scalable, open-source, distributed storage system that runs on commodity hardware and delivers object, block and file system storage.

Crimson is a re-implementation of the ceph-osd daemon using a more platform aware and scalable software architecture (seastar).

This package contains the Crimson Object Storage Daemon for the Ceph storage system. It is responsible for storing objects on a local file system and providing access to them over the network.
