   4  Ceph Storage Cluster APIs

   7 The :term:`Ceph Storage Cluster` has a messaging layer protocol that enables
   8 clients to interact with a :term:`Ceph Monitor` and a :term:`Ceph OSD Daemon`.
   9 ``librados`` provides this functionality to :term:`Ceph Clients` in the form of
  10 a library.  All Ceph Clients either use ``librados`` or the same functionality
  11 encapsulated in ``librados`` to interact with the object store.  For example,
  12 ``librbd`` and ``libcephfs`` leverage this functionality. You may use
  13 ``librados`` to interact with Ceph directly (e.g., an application that talks to
  14 Ceph, your own interface to Ceph, etc.).
