Hardware requirements for Red Hat OpenStack and Red Ceph Storage

I recently worked with a couple of our OEM Partners who wanted to create a Reference Architecture with Red Hat OpenStack, and Red Hat Ceph Storage. One of the first questions that come up during the conversation is the hardware requirement for a Reference Architecture.

The below presentation covers not only the minimum requirements for an OpenStack deployment with Ceph Storage, but also the hardware(storage node) requirements for various Ceph workloads like IOPS-Optimized, Throughput-Optimized, and Cost/Capacity Optimized workloads.
