Motivated by Ceph usage in the OSiRIS project, the University of Michigan has joined the Ceph Foundation as an Associate Member. We join other educational, government, and research organizations engaged in the Ceph foundation at this membership level.
From the Foundation website: The Ceph Foundation exists to enable industry members to collaborate and pool resources to support the Ceph project community. The Foundation provides an open, collaborative, and neutral home for project stakeholders to coordinate their development and community investments in the Ceph ecosystem.
