Description: The ‘Librados Snapshots’ in Ceph are a fundamental feature that allows capturing the state of an object at a specific moment. This functionality is essential for data management in distributed storage environments, as it provides an efficient way to perform backups and restorations. Snapshots enable system administrators and end-users to access previous versions of data without the need to duplicate storage, optimizing resource usage. Additionally, snapshots are quick to create and do not interrupt data access, making them a valuable tool for disaster recovery and data protection. In a distributed storage system, snapshots are managed through its object architecture, ensuring that data integrity and availability are maintained while capturing the state of an object at a given moment. This feature is particularly relevant in environments where business continuity is critical, as it allows organizations to minimize downtime and data loss.
