Grafana Cloud provides an integration for monitoring Ceph, an open-source distributed storage system, enabling users to observe and manage their storage clusters efficiently. Ceph offers object, block, and file-level storage interfaces on a distributed cluster with no single point of failure, necessitating redundant nodes for Object Storage Daemons (OSD) and Metadata Server Daemons (MDS) to ensure data protection and cluster configuration management. The Grafana integration, utilizing a Prometheus plugin, allows users to enable monitoring with a simple command and configure the Grafana Agent to gather data from Ceph nodes. This setup provides a comprehensive dashboard displaying crucial metrics such as node status, data throughput, capacity, and latency, alongside alert notifications for potential issues like unhealthy clusters, low disk capacity, and downed nodes. The integration aims to offer a quick and straightforward monitoring solution, supporting users with various alerts and community support through the Grafana Slack Community, with options ranging from a free tier to more extensive plans.
