   2  Ceph Storage Cluster APIs
   3 ===========================
   4
   5 The :term:`Ceph Storage Cluster` has a messaging layer protocol that enables
   6 clients to interact with a :term:`Ceph Monitor` and a :term:`Ceph OSD Daemon`.
   7 ``librados`` provides this functionality to :term:`Ceph Clients` in the form of
   8 a library.  All Ceph Clients either use ``librados`` or the same functionality
   9 encapsulated in ``librados`` to interact with the object store.  For example,
  10 ``librbd`` and ``libcephfs`` leverage this functionality. You may use
  11 ``librados`` to interact with Ceph directly (e.g., an application that talks to
  12 Ceph, your own interface to Ceph, etc.).
