RBD is an block driver for the distributed file system Ceph
(http://ceph.newdream.net/). This driver uses librados (which is part
of the Ceph server) for direct access to the Ceph object store and is
running entirely in userspace (Yehuda also wrote a driver for the
linux kernel, that can be used to access rbd volumes as a block
device).
