Project Aquarium
Project Aquarium is a SUSE-sponsored open source project aiming at becoming an easy to use, rock solid storage appliance based on Ceph.
We are investigating the beginnings of a new storage appliance project in an opinionated fashion. The Aquarium project is split into two clearly defined work streams: Gravel (backend) and Glass (frontend).
Aquarist Labs is licensed under GPL version 3, except where other licenses may apply. We do not require assignment of a copyright to contribute code; code is contributed under the terms of the applicable license.
How do I get started?
Look at the issue list or check out our Slack channel (see below) and ask one of the friendly contributors. You can also view our project board and check our Review Guidelines.
If you want to get your hands dirty as soon as possible, you can also run the
script at tools/setup-dev.sh. This will ensure you have a basic development
environment as soon as possible so you can start hacking.
You will be able to find the backend bits in src/gravel, while the frontend
bits are located in src/glass.
