We performed a comparison between DataCore SANsymphony and Oracle Exalogic [EOL] based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about NetApp, DataCore, Dell Technologies and others in Storage Software."The DataCore system has been rock solid since we have been using it - from 2007 on."
"It is a stable solution."
"The synchronous mirror allows us to operate a fully redundant storage solution that is distributed across two sites."
"I am very happy with this product's ability to adapt, increase, and modify existing infrastructures."
"The features I have found most valuable are the active-active, or so-called grid technology, and the integration into our VMware-vCenter."
"The dashboard is very intuitive, and there are a lot of counters to diagnose what happens during a short period (like when a backup is in progress)."
"The interface is user-friendly."
"An advantage of SANsymphony is its ease of use, especially when installing or upgrading the system."
"Server consolidation. In a cloud architecture, moving the HA VM from one to other is faster. This is because of the InfiniBand network fabric between the compute nodes and storage nodes (ZFS Storage)."
"The main benefit of using the solution is for the performance it provides."
"Enterprise high-speed interoperability: With IPoIB we can deliver to other environments, either IP-Ethernet-based or IP-InfiniBand-based protocol, both with minimum bandwidth capacity of 10Gbps, 20Gbps, or 40Gbps, redundantly."
"Scalablility: When we need to upgrade from an eighth-rack to a full-rack, the real downtime is less then an hour."
"Exalogic offers integration with other engineered systems, which increases the throughput capability and enables processing of bigger and heavier workloads."
"The automation and provisioning of the environment, as well as the centralized monitoring, have all improved over the years."
"Provides high-speed network, strong storage features (ZFS), High Availability out of the box, and is Integrated with a large number of products."
"DataCore SANsymphony should integrate file servers at a good price into the solution."
"We'd like to manage the raid on the disk directly in SanSymphony."
"There is no way of quickly matching the exact size of a vDisk to a disk pool."
"There is room for improvement in the graphical interface."
"Problem detection could be easier. It should help customers identify problems very quickly because it's not easy to analyze on the platform today."
"The graphical interface is not always very stable."
"The solution could be better packaged and marketed."
"I would like for it to improve into a more ergonomic management console and a translation into the French language. It should have some process for a shutdown of a VM properly in case of a problem."
"The solution is prone to disk failures. This needs to improve. Over the past four years we've had to replace about six of them. They've failed almost every three to six months."
"Middleware application services, such as statistics, data mining, could be better."
"The solution needs to add a network virtualization feature similar to that of VxRail. If they could implement that, it would be great for the product."
