    I get it. I get it. 3 Nodes for Ceph. But what about ZFS shared?

    I would say go with CEPH, it works very well. with 2 nodes and 1 shared zfs storage - the storage server is still the single point of failure. with 3 nodes go with CEPH and have 3 way replication. 1G network is fine for your use case since there is not much data being written.
