Despite being a few versions behind a fast-moving system, this book has been a life-saver for getting up and going with Ceph quickly. The checklist/recipe format is extremely reference friendly, but the overall book is a readable introduction as well. But it is definitely hands-on and that has definitely helped me.

I've worked with Ceph for over six years. Production Ceph deployments often start at the petabyte level, and grow from there. Additionally, Ceph supports file, block and object interfaces on the same storage platform. Ceph is open-source, free and powerful. It is also a de facto back end for OpenStack Nova, Glance and Cinder. These factors make Ceph both very exciting and a little bit intimidating for first time users.By contrast, learning how to use Ceph usually starts on a much smaller scale--often with a personal computer and some virtual machines. The Ceph Cookbook identifies all of the required software (open source, and free), and step-by-step guidance for deploying a Ceph cluster on a small scale. The skills you learn from the Ceph Cookbook can transfer directly to production environments. Ceph Cookbook also provides detailed step-by-step guidance on how to use the file, block and object interfaces, including their advanced features such as taking snapshots, disaster recovery, and even how to integrate Ceph with OpenStack! With the Ceph Cookbook, you can learn Ceph concepts and features on a small scale and transfer those skills directly to large scale production environments.By following the step-by-step examples provided by Ceph veterans, Vikhyat, Michael and Karan, the Ceph Cookbook will take you from a novice level to a competent Ceph user in short order. The Ceph Cookbook is well worth it!

I have been working with Ceph for almost 2 years now, and many times I find myself searching many different documents to find the required commands or configurations that I require. Since aquiring this book I have been able to perform all of my daily tasks while referencing the book for any steps or procedures I need to manage my clusters, I no longer need to bounce between multiple guides. All of the steps are very detailed and easy to follow, and even include nice screenshots. I would recommend this cookbook for anyone just starting out with Ceph or anyone that deploys or manages Ceph on a daily basis. This is an excellent resource to have handy!

What is custom duty/charge? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

Customs duty are charges levied on goods when they cross international borders. It is a tax that is imposed on imported goods. These duties are charged by special authorities and bodies created by local governments and are meant to protect local industries, economies, and businesses.

Do I have to pay customs charges for the print book order? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

The orders shipped to the countries that are listed under EU27 will not bear custom charges. They are paid by Packt as part of the order.

List of EU27 countries: www.gov.uk/eu-eea:

A custom duty or localized taxes may be applicable on the shipment and would be charged by the recipient country outside of the EU27 which should be paid by the customer and these duties are not included in the shipping charges been charged on the order.

How do I know my custom duty charges? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

The amount of duty payable varies greatly depending on the imported goods, the country of origin and several other factors like the total invoice amount or dimensions like weight, and other such criteria applicable in your country.

For example:

  • If you live in Mexico, and the declared value of your ordered items is over $ 50, for you to receive a package, you will have to pay additional import tax of 19% which will be $ 9.50 to the courier service.
  • Whereas if you live in Turkey, and the declared value of your ordered items is over € 22, for you to receive a package, you will have to pay additional import tax of 18% which will be € 3.96 to the courier service.
