Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The two 10GE networks provide redundancy and increased performance as they serve as two separate networks doubling the throughput and doing multipathing and load balancing. We now have a high performance shared storage system which enables us to run on private cloud. Our previous system used bare-metal hardware, which provided high performance but inflexible management. Now we have best of both worlds, SSD-class performance with flexibility of a private cloud system.""Creating snapshots within seconds for big disks has helped our different migration projects since it allows us to perform them in a short period of time.""The team behind it was very engaged and had the skills and ability to support a service provider.""With StorPool we were able to build live failover on top of our LXC infrastructure. This allows us both to live-migrate containers between compute nodes without any downtime and, in case of an entire node suffering any type of failure, we can bring all containers back online within a minute on a spare compute node.""The speed of the storage solution also allows us to provide service to applications that are ​very I/O ​intensive.""Performance, redundancy, scalability and cost-effectiveness. StorPool delivers superbly in all of these areas."

"Veritas Access is user-friendly and the NAS and SAN volumes are valuable.""It has a huge deduplication ratio for backups of long-term archives.""The product deployment is easy."

Cons
"Monitoring and statistics UI is a bit clumsy.""At times we need to check the disks and do some minor operations. A friendlier user interface would be useful in such cases.""Live and historical performance statistics would be useful, though my understanding is that this is on the way in a future release.""I have personally met with multiple Storpool engineers and spoke about different options and features. There are too many features that we don't know or use yet. My recommendation would be to promote the new features and give users different examples of how they can be used and how we can benefit from them.""It would be good if, with next releases, StorPool provide a better GUI for monitoring and statistics. This would make our experience even better and complete.""he only place we feel they could improve is the time it takes to bring new features to production."

"The downtime of Veritas Access could be improved.""I would like to see Veritas Access included as an S3 target.""They could improve additional fees for the platform's data capacity. It could be more cost-effective."

    Overview

    StorPool is intelligent storage software that runs on standard servers and builds scalable, high-performance storage system out of these servers (software-defined storage). It focuses on the block-level storage and excels at it. It is incredibly flexible and can be deployed in both converged setups (on compute nodes, alongside VMs and applications) or on separate storage nodes.

    StorPool has advanced fully-distributed architecture and is arguably the fastest and most efficient block-storage software on the market today. It is the best storage system when building a cloud.

    Veritas Access is a software-defined, scale-out network-attached storage (NAS) solution for unstructured data that uses intelligent policies to optimize data placement on-premise or on public clouds. Access provides resiliency, multi-protocol access and automated data movement to realize application performance, cost-effectiveness and scalability gains.
