=========================
-Like Kubernetes, Nomad can use Ceph Block Device thanks to `ceph-csi`_,

-Every nomad version can use `ceph-csi`_, however we'll here describe the

To use Ceph Block Devices with Nomad, you must install
and configure ``ceph-csi`` within your Nomad environment. The following
