Ceph Clients include a number of service interfaces. These include:
-- **Block Devices:** The :term:`Ceph Block Device` (a.k.a., RBD) service
- provides resizable, thin-provisioned block devices with snapshotting and
- cloning. Ceph stripes a block device across the cluster for high
- performance. Ceph supports both kernel objects (KO) and a QEMU hypervisor
- that uses ``librbd`` directly--avoiding the kernel object overhead for
