We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"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 cost was the main reason we chose to use this solution.""The most valuable features are its scalability and Amazon S3 compatibility because we can move back and forth with a hybrid cloud."

"Thin provisioning lets us get the most value from the hard drives.""The initial setup is straightforward, not a complex procedure.""Data is stored in two different places, leveraging more security and availability. Therefore, network problems are having less affect on iSCSI.""A very flexible solution.""The seamlessness behind the scenes of block management.""It appears to be very stable and very robust.""The solution is very stable.""Simplicity of not having to buy FC or FCoE SAN. Instead, we buy servers with their own storage."

Cons
"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.""It is a cloud-based environment and at times, it is not very simple to use.""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."

"Product looks like it is in the end of development.""User interface could be improved.""The management aspect of the solution needs to be improved in order to make the product stronger.""The GUI is a bit old-fashioned. It should be updated.""f you're doing the 10Gb adapters, SFPs don't come with it, but it doesn't say that. It might say that somewhere else, but it's not clear.""The product is coming to end-of-life in the next three years.""It would be nice if there were more parts available in Brazil and HPE could swap out faulty equipment quicker.""One of the areas that need improvement is the consolidated management platform, to manage all of the nodes from one place and the licensing around that."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "Our fees are approximately half a dollar per gigabyte."
  • "The solution is cheap."
  • More Cloudian HyperStore Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "The prices are OK, so we don't have much difficulty selling HPE in Brazil."
  • "One of the key features about it is that when you buy either a VSA license or a StoreVirtual appliance, all your software's included."
  • "If you buy a five-year license, not only does the technical support expire after five years, but you also lose the ability to change and expand the VSA, and the systems won't go down."
  • "Licensing is not exactly straightforward, but not the worst I have ever seen."
  • "For our organization, I believe the cost is 16,000 Euros for a three-year license. It costs a bit more to do the maintenance on our servers as well. It's also on an HP ProLiant server and an organization will need to do the maintenance there also. I believe the price for that is around 2000 Euros a year."
  • "It costs less than $10,000 for one machine. If it costs more than 15% higher than this, then the customer may change to another solution."

    Overview

    Cloudian HyperStore lets you start small and grow to hundreds of petabytes on-premises simply by adding nodes. Leverage the proven interoperability of the industry’s only 100% native S3 API.

    HPE StoreVirtual storage ensures that organisations can optimise the benefits of server virtualisation with cost-effective high availability and disaster recovery. The iSCSI-based, scale-out storage platform is easy to manage and change – meeting ongoing business demands without creating IT bottlenecks or application downtime. Overcoming the cost and management limitations of traditional storage area networks (SANs), HPE StoreVirtual nodes use storage clustering to form a single pool of resources that enable organisations to buy only what they need today, scaling non-disruptively to meet requirements in the future.
