+ Install Ceph Object Gateway
+=============================
+
+The :term:`Ceph Object Gateway` daemon runs on Apache and FastCGI.
+
+To run a :term:`Ceph Object Storage` service, you must install Apache and
+FastCGI. Then, you must install the Ceph Object Gateway daemon. The Ceph Object
+Gateway supports 100-continue, but you must install Ceph builds of Apache and
+FastCGI for 100-continue support. To install the Ceph Object Gateway, first
+install and configure Apache and FastCGI. Then, install the Ceph Object Gateway
+daemon. If you plan to run a Ceph Object Storage service with a federated
+architecture (multiple regions and zones), you must also install the
+synchronization agent.
+
+
+Apache/FastCGI w/out 100-Continue
+=================================
+
+You may use standard Apache and FastCGI packages for your Ceph Object
+Gateways. However, they will not provide 100-continue support.
+
+Debian Packages
+---------------
+
+To install Apache and FastCGI Debian packages, execute the following::
+
+ sudo apt-get install apache2 libapache2-mod-fastcgi
+
+
+RPM Packages
+------------
+
+To install Apache and FastCGI RPMs, execute the following::
+
+ rpm -ivh fcgi-2.4.0-10.el6.x86_64.rpm
+ rpm -ivh mod_fastcgi-2.4.6-2.el6.rf.x86_64.rpm
+
+Or::
+
+ sudo yum install httpd mod_fastcgi
+
+
+Apache/FastCGI w/ 100-Continue
+==============================
+
+The Ceph community provides a slightly optimized version of the ``apache2``
+and ``fastcgi`` packages. The material difference is that the Ceph packages are
+optimized for the ``100-continue`` HTTP response, where the server determines
+if it will accept the request by first evaluating the request header. See `RFC
+2616, Section 8`_ for details on ``100-continue``. You can find the most recent
+builds of Apache and FastCGI packages modified for Ceph at `gitbuilder.ceph.com`_.
+
+
+Debian Packages
+---------------
+
+#. Add a ``ceph-apache.list`` file to your APT sources. ::

+
+#. Update your repository and install Apache and FastCGI::
+
+ sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install apache2 libapache2-mod-fastcgi
+
+
+RPM Packages
+------------
+
+To install Apache with 100-continue, execute the following steps:
+
+#. Install ``yum-plugin-priorities``. ::
+
+ sudo yum install yum-plugin-priorities
+
+#. Ensure ``/etc/yum/pluginconf.d/priorities.conf`` exists.
+
+#. Ensure ``priorities.conf`` enables the plugin. ::
+
+ [main]
+ enabled = 1

+Configure Apache/FastCGI
+========================
+
+To complete the installation, ensure that you have the rewrite module
+enabled and FastCGI enabled. The steps differ slightly based upon the
+type of package installation.
+
+Debian-based Packages
+---------------------
+
+#. Open the ``apache2.conf`` file. ::
+
+ sudo vim /etc/apache2/apache2.conf

+ Provide the fully qualified domain name of the server machine
+ (e.g., ``hostname -f``). ::
+
+ ServerName {fqdn}
+
+#. Enable the URL rewrite modules for Apache and FastCGI. ::
+
+ sudo a2enmod rewrite
+ sudo a2enmod fastcgi
+
+
+#. Restart Apache so that the foregoing changes take effect. ::
+
+ sudo service apache2 restart
+
+
+RPM-based Packages
+------------------
+
+
+#. Open the ``httpd.conf`` file. ::
+
+ sudo vim /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf
+
+#. Uncomment ``#ServerName`` and add the name of your server.
+ Provide the fully qualified domain name of the server machine
+ (e.g., ``hostname -f``).::
+
+ ServerName {fgdn}
+
+#. Ensure that the Rewrite module is enabled. ::
+
+ #if not present, add:
+ LoadModule rewrite_module modules/mod_rewrite.so
+
+#. Save the ``httpd.conf`` file.
+
+#. Ensure that the FastCGI module is enabled. The installer should
+ include an ``/etc/httpd/conf.d/fastcgi.conf`` file that loads the
+ FastCGI module. ::
+
+ #if not present, add:
+ LoadModule fastcgi_module modules/mod_fastcgi.so
+

+Install Ceph Object Gateway
+===========================
+
+Ceph Object Storage services use the Ceph Object Gateway daemon (``radosgw``)
+to enable the gateway. For federated architectures, the synchronization
+agent (``radosgw-agent``) provides data and metadata synchronization between
+zones and regions.

+
+Debian Packages
+---------------
+
+To install the Ceph Object Gateway daemon, execute the
+following::
+
+ sudo apt-get install radosgw
+
+
+To install the Ceph Object Gateway synchronization agent, execute the
+following::
+
+ sudo apt-get radosgw-agent
+
+
+RPM Packages
