In this talk we will present SUSE's storage team's latest passion project, s3gw (https://s3gw.io), an easy-to-use S3-compatible service for kubernetes environments. Although focused to work on top of Longhorn (https://longhorn.io), s3gw can leverage any local filesystem or Persistent Volume provided to it. The project is divided in two main components: the s3gw service, a Ceph RADOS Gateway with a custom, filesystem based backend, leveraging RGW's SAL implementation; and the s3gw UI, not only for management tasks but also providing a bucket and object explorer. During our time together we will discuss s3gw's backend implementation, and present the UI, with a small demonstration of how to deploy the project on a small kubernetes cluster. With this talk we would love to also gather feedback from the attendees, so we can feed back into project development.

In this talk, we will demonstrate how Ceph's ceph-mgr can be leveraged for whatever silly project we want, as long as we have a silly idea for a project and enough to time to sink into it. In our case, we will show how one could relay health status (and other information) to the user by visual, annoying means -- i.e., by plugging into a Philips Hue bridge, and changing the colors of the room.

We shall cover

1) high-level view of what ceph-mgr is 2) basics of ceph-mgr modules, their bare-bones architecture and how to create a simple module 3) the basic architecture of our proof-of-concept 4) a quick, live (ugh) demo, should power sockets be available 5) time permitting, an overview of how to scale this to something that goes beyond a silly home made project
