We performed a comparison between Cloudian HyperStore and Pure Storage FlashArray based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about MinIO, Red Hat, Dell Technologies and others in File and Object Storage."The most valuable features are its scalability and Amazon S3 compatibility because we can move back and forth with a hybrid cloud."
"The cost was the main reason we chose to use this solution."
"It is very durable and that is particularly important."
"The tool has S3 capability. Its scalability is excellent. From a security and encryption perspective, the solution supports SSL encryption. It is a seamless solution offering data encryption, quality service, and security encryption."
"The most valuable features in Pure Storage FlashArray are deduplication and active cluster."
"It does efficient work of storing data while still delivering the performance that you would normally expect from a higher priced solution."
"The most valuable feature is how it simplifies the management of the SAN."
"The solution is easy to scale. I'm running two environments right now, so I need to scale. I'm running a part technology. I've got an A-side and a B-side."
"It has good stability for our company."
"The most valuable feature is its speed."
"It's simple, powerful, and ready to use."
"The most valuable features of Pure Storage FlashArray are the management view of the solutions, ease of provision, and deprovision, it is fantastic."
"Cloudian HyperStore needs to incorporate AI and predictive analysis. It would be helpful if the solution could analyze and predict how to manage data better. The end users should not have access to protected documents. They should be able to drop the documents. The capacity management dashboard can be better. We also want two-factor authentication using Google Authenticator or Microsoft Authenticator as MFA. Hence, the user would access the console not just by logging in with a password and username but with third-party applications as well."
"It is a cloud-based environment and at times, it is not very simple to use."
"As it is an S3 solution with the same protocol as the one we have with AWS, having better integration with AWS will be beneficial."
"The internal garbage collection process has been fixed recently in some OS updates so it is more efficient but that could be just a little better."
"If we suddenly dump large amounts of data onto the storage system, it takes a while to process it."
"We would like to see more cloud support, which we know is coming, although it's not out yet. It's going to be released in the next versions. That would be the biggest win, if additional cloud support is built into the array."
"I recognize it's a difficult challenge, but I would like to see them make the pricing more reasonable."
"Pure Storage FlashArray could improve by being more secure."
"A minor issue that comes to mind is that, every once in a while, a hard drive will go bad."
"The connectivity needs improvement. You do not have the possibility to have a file and block connectivity at the same time on the same machine. It has limited ability to do so."
"When we were doing some tests, we found that there was an I/O freeze when they were switching the controller."
