Enable Ceph RADOS Gateway Object Storage#

Pelagia enables you to deploy Ceph RADOS Gateway (RGW) Object Storage instances and automatically manage its resources such as users and buckets.

Pelagia has an integration for Ceph Object Storage with OpenStack Object Storage (Swift) provided by Rockoon.

Ceph RGW Object Storage parameters#

name - Mandatory. Ceph Object Storage instance name.
usedForOpenstack - Optional. Enables consumption of the current Ceph RGW instance by OpenStack, which allows adding the required OpenStack parameters to the Ceph RGW configuration.
auxiliaryService - Optional. Enables the current Ceph RGW instance to operate without a StorageClass and external API access. Useful for auxiliary instances, such as a Ceph RGW multisite replication daemon or an instance providing Ceph RGW admin API access.
servedByIngress - Optional. Enables the current Ceph RGW instance to be used by the Ingress controller. Deprecated in favor of the Gateway API HTTPRoutes.
spec - Mandatory. Represents the Rook CephObjectStore specification. For details, see CephObjectStore CRD and CephObjectStore API specification.
