Storage

Ceph is a Ceph based storage resource built and managed by Research Computing staff to provide storage for Lehigh's research community as well as for HPC clusters. In Fall 2018, LTS purchased a 768TB Ceph cluster to replace the original 1PB Ceph cluster. Ceph was designed as an expandable cluster with faculty, staff, departments, colleges and admin stems capable of purchasing storage in multiples of 1TB (usable). In Fall 2020, Ceph was augmented by an additional 796TB from Hawk and 455TB by LTS for a total of 2PB storage cluster.
