Ceph Object Gateway, also known as RADOS Gateway (RGW), is an object storage interface built on top of the librados library to provide applications with a RESTful gateway to Ceph storage clusters. The leading interface for the Ceph Object Gateway is S3, which provides object storage functionality with an interface that is compatible with a large subset of the Amazon S3 RESTful API.

Join the Advanced Technology Group for a closer look at IBM Storage Ceph and S3 object storage, with emphasis on day 2 operations and advanced features. Topics covered will include bucket replication, Ceph object archive zone, S3 Object Lock immutability, S3 select for AI/ML use cases, and cloud transitions. This session goes into an intermediate level focused on IBM Storage Ceph deployment and control of the RADOS Gateway and S3 object storage services.

It is recommended that the participant have a basic understanding of IBM Storage Ceph or, in the alternate, a viewing of the Accelerate with ATG webcast on January 10, 2023, which covered the Introduction to IBM Storage Ceph. (https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/node/6845570)
