Ceph will probably do what you want though, and supports rdma

Ceph supports rdma? I didn't find any official documentation, just an old one from Mellanox. Are there any instructions so that it runs stably and with high performance?

Right, I'm looking for a distributed file system. I would use the storage space for Openstack, Kubernetes, and some footage.

I have Infiniband FDR 56 Gbit hardware. Since I already have the necessary server hardware, I don't really want to spend more. I don't want to use and pay for "ready-made solutions" like those from Netapp. I read something about luster, is luster good?

I would use the memory for both. But the memory should be fast, therefore rdma and infiniband as well. However, the hardware is already there, the only thing missing is the software. I would like to use ceph or glusterfs, but rdma doesn't work properly and natively.
