# Current status
An object storage design was [described](https://wiki.softwareheritage.org/wiki/A_practical_approach_to_efficiently_store_100_billions_small_objects_in_Ceph) and is [discussed](https://lists.ceph.io/hyperkitty/list/ceph-users@ceph.io/thread/DRZ6XP45PEXKMYJSSYSDXC2RGJ3BW75H/) . Benchmarks need to be written to verify it is efficient (space and speed) for the intended use cases.
