Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"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 are its scalability and Amazon S3 compatibility because we can move back and forth with a hybrid cloud.""It is very durable and that is particularly important.""The cost was the main reason we chose to use this solution."

"It's a very performance-intensive, brilliant storage system, and I always recommend it to customers based on its benefits, performance, and scalability.""The most valuable feature is the stability of the product.""We have some legacy servers that can be associated with this structure. With Ceph, we can rearrange these machines and reuse our investment.""The configuration of the solution and the user interface are both quite good.""Ceph has simplified my storage integration. I no longer need two or three storage systems, as Ceph can support all my storage needs. I no longer need OpenStack Swift for REST object storage access, I no longer need NFS or GlusterFS for filesystem sharing, and most importantly, I no longer need LVM or DRBD for my virtual machines in OpenStack.""The community support is very good.""We use the solution for cloud storage.""High reliability with commodity hardware."

Cons
"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."

More Cloudian HyperStore Cons →

"It takes some time to re-balance the storage in case of server failure.""I have encountered issues with stability when replication factor was not 3, which is the default and recommended value. Go below 3 and problems will arise.""Ceph is not a mature product at this time. Guides are misleading and incomplete. You will meet all kind of bugs and errors trying to install the system for the first time. It requires very experienced personnel to support and keep the system in working condition, and install all necessary packets.""This product uses a lot of CPU and network bandwidth. It needs some deduplication features and to use delta for rebalancing.""It needs a better UI for easier installation and management.""The storage capacity of the solution can be improved.""Some documentation is very hard to find.""What could be improved in Red Hat Ceph Storage is its user interface or GUI."
