Compression: Why

                                 More Data

               10x Data Growth from
                   2013 to 20201
           •    Digital universe doubling every two years                                          Compression can save
           •    Data from the Internet of Things, will grow 5x
           •    % of data that is analyzed grows from 22% to 37%                                   storage capacity

BTRFS Introduction
  Copy on Write (CoW) filesystem for Linux.
  “Has the correct feature set and roadmap to serve
   Ceph in the long-term, and is recommended for
   testing, development, and any non-critical
   deployments… This compelling list of features
   makes btrfs the ideal choice for Ceph clusters”*
  Native compression support.
     Mount with “compress” or “compress-force”.
     ZLIB / LZO supported.
     Compress up to 128KB each time.
                                                                                                       7

Compression Algorithm
   BTRFS currently supports LZO and ZLIB:
      The Lempel-Ziv-Oberhumer (LZO) compression is a
       portable and lossless compression library that focuses on
       compression speed rather than data compression ratio.
      ZLIB provides lossless data compression based on the
       DEFLATE compression algorithm.
           LZ77 + Huffman coding
           Good compression ratio, slow
   Intel® QuickAssist Technology supports:
      DEFLATE: LZ77 compression followed by Huffman coding
       with GZIP or ZLIB header.
                                                                                               8

Key Takeaways
  Data compression can save disk IO and disk
   utilization.
  Data compression is CPU intensive, getting
   better compression ratio requires more CPU
   cost.
  Hardware offloading method can greatly reduce
   CPU cost, optimize disk utilization & IO in the
   Storage infrastructure.
  Filesystem level compression in OSD is
   transparent to the Ceph software stack.

    64-bit computing on Intel architecture requires a computer system with a processor, chipset, BIOS, operating system, device drivers and applications enabled for Intel® 64 architecture. Performance will vary depending on your
    hardware and software configurations. Consult with your system vendor for more information.

    No computer system can provide absolute security under all conditions. Intel® Trusted Execution Technology is a security technology under development by Intel and requires for operation a computer system with Intel® Virtualization
    Technology, an Intel Trusted Execution Technology-enabled processor, chipset, BIOS, Authenticated Code Modules, and an Intel or other compatible measured virtual machine monitor. In addition, Intel Trusted Execution Technology
    requires the system to contain a TPMv1.2 as defined by the Trusted Computing Group and specific software for some uses. See http://www.intel.com/technology/security/ for more information.

    Intel® Virtualization Technology requires a computer system with an enabled Intel® processor, BIOS, virtual machine monitor (VMM) and, for some uses, certain platform software enabled for it. Functionality, performance or other
    benefits will vary depending on hardware and software configurations and may require a BIOS update. Software applications may not be compatible with all operating systems. Please check with your application vendor.
