# RGW Multisite
This document contains directions for configuring the RGW Multisite in ceph-ansible.
-Multisite replication can be configured either over multiple Ceph clusters or in a single Ceph cluster to isolate RGWs from eachother.
+Multisite replication can be configured either over multiple Ceph clusters or in a single Ceph cluster to isolate RGWs from each other.
The first two sections are refreshers on working with ansible inventory and RGW Multisite.
The next 4 sections are instructions on deploying the following multisite scenarios:
### The Inventory File
-Ceph-ansible starts up all the different daemons in a Ceph cluster.
+ceph-ansible starts up all the different daemons in a Ceph cluster.
Each daemon (osd.0, mon.1, rgw.a) is given a line in the inventory file. Each line is called a **host** in ansible.
Each type of daemon (osd, mon, rgw, mgr, etc.) is given a **group** with its respective daemons in the ansible inventory file.
A group of 1 or more RGWs can be grouped into a **zone**.\
A group of 1 or more zones can be grouped into a **zonegroup**.\
A group of 1 or more zonegroups can be grouped into a **realm**.\
-A Ceph **cluster** in multisite has 1 or more rgws that use the same backend OSDs.\
+A Ceph **cluster** in multisite has 1 or more rgws that use the same backend OSDs.
-There can be mutliple clusters in one realm, multiple realms in a single cluster, or multiple realms over multiple clusters.
+There can be multiple clusters in one realm, multiple realms in a single cluster, or multiple realms over multiple clusters.
### RGW Realms
Finally, The variable `rgw_zone` is set to "default" to enable compression for clusters configured without rgw multi-site.
If multisite is configured `rgw_zone` should not be set to "default".
