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 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.""It is very durable and that is particularly important."

More Cloudian HyperStore Pros →

"Replicated and erasure coded pools have allowed for multiple copies to be kept, easy scale-out of additional nodes, and easy replacement of failed hard drives. The solution continues working even when there are errors.""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.""radosgw and librados provide a simple integration with clone, snapshots, and other functions that aid in data integrity.""Without any extra costs, I was able to provide a redundant environment.""Most valuable features include replication and compression.""It's a very performance-intensive, brilliant storage system, and I always recommend it to customers based on its benefits, performance, and scalability.""We have not encountered any stability issues for the product.""Data redundancy is a key feature, since it can survive failures (disks/servers). We didn’t lose our data or have a service interruption during server/disk failures."

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."

More Cloudian HyperStore Cons →

"Geo-replication needs improvement. It is a new feature, and not well supported yet.""I would like to see better performance and stability when Ceph is in recovery.""What could be improved in Red Hat Ceph Storage is its user interface or GUI.""The management features are pretty good, but they still have room for improvement.""The product lacks RDMA support for inter-OSD communication.""Some documentation is very hard to find.""Ceph does not deal very well with, or takes a long time to recover from, certain kinds of network failures and individual storage node failures.""Please create a failback solution for OpenStack replication and maybe QoS to allow guaranteed IOPS."
