General
~~~~~~~
- * A new deployment tool called **cephadm** has been introduced that
- integrates Ceph daemon deployment and management via containers
- into the orchestration layer. For more information see
- :ref:`cephadm-bootstrap`.
- * Health alerts can now be muted, either temporarily or permanently.
- * A simple 'alerts' capability has been introduced to send email
- health alerts for clusters deployed without the benefit of an
- existing external monitoring infrastructure.
- * Health alerts are now raised for recent Ceph daemons crashes.

- * Objects can now be brought in sync during recovery by copying only
- the modified portion of the object, reducing tail latencies during
- recovery.
- * The PG autoscaler feature introduced in Nautilus is enabled for
- new pools by default, allowing new clusters to autotune *pg num*
- without any user intervention. The default values for new pools
- and RGW/CephFS metadata pools have also been adjusted to perform
- well for most users.
- * BlueStore has received several improvements and performance
- updates, including improved accounting for "omap" (key/value)
- object data by pool, improved cache memory management, and a
- reduced allocation unit size for SSD devices. (Note that by
- default, the first time each OSD starts after upgrading to octopus
- it will trigger a conversion that may take from a few minutes to a
- few hours, depending on the amount of stored "omap" data.)
- * Snapshot trimming metadata is now managed in a more efficient and
- scalable fashion.

**RBD** block storage
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- * Clone operations now preserve the sparseness of the underlying RBD image.
- * The trash feature has been improved to (optionally) automatically
- move old parent images to the trash when their children are all
- deleted or flattened.
- * The ``rbd-nbd`` tool has been improved to use more modern kernel interfaces.
- * Caching has been improved to be more efficient and performant.

**CephFS** distributed file system
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- * Inline data support in CephFS has been deprecated and will likely be
- removed in a future release.
- * MDS daemons can now be assigned to manage a particular file system via the
- new ``mds_join_fs`` option.
- * MDS now aggressively asks idle clients to trim caps which improves stability
- when file system load changes.
- * The mgr volumes plugin has received numerous improvements to support CephFS
- via CSI, including snapshots and cloning.
- * cephfs-shell has had numerous incremental improvements and bug fixes.
