+Production Cluster Example
+==========================
+
+Production clusters for petabyte scale data storage may also use commodity
+hardware, but should have considerably more memory, processing power and data
+storage to account for heavy traffic loads.
+
+A recent (2012) Ceph cluster project is using two fairly robust hardware
+configurations for Ceph OSDs, and a lighter configuration for monitors.
