Provides valuable features such as access keys, container strings, lifecycle management, audit logs, and the soft delete option
Data Lake Storage provides valuable features such as access keys, container strings, lifecycle management, audit logs, and the soft delete option.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"It's a cloud-based tool within the Microsoft ecosystem, offering many benefits for data handling."
"Azure Data Lake Storage offers comprehensive integration with a variety of Azure tools, such as SQL servers and the Azure DevOps platform."
"Offers high scalability for data storage"
"We can implement one framework and utilize it for multiple use cases."
"The tool's best feature is that it can store different types of data - structured, unstructured, and semi-structured—in one lake. We can use the required data for analytics and dashboard design."
"The most valuable feature is the scalability due to the blob, which allows us to scale our data effectively."
"The tool is very safe to use. It is impossible to hack the product."
"Storage within Azure Data Lake is cheaper, which is one of the reasons we moved to it."
"The Evergreen program is excellent, and the pricing is quite reasonable. My friends who work there are doing very well and consistently achieving strong results. Like any company, they experience occasional downturns but perform impressively overall."
"The speed of the product is quite a bit better in performance than the previous environment we were running on, and it seems to have a better feature set."
"We have snapshots. We put snapshots on disks, and we can save information. In the case of ransomware, everything is in the snapshot. We have a snapshot lock on it, so it's safe."
"The speed of the product is quite a bit better in performance than the previous peer environment we were running on, and it seems to have a better feature set."
 

Cons

"Microsoft Fabric costs more since we are charged for all the components."
"Microsoft, in general, needs to simplify its licensing model. That's one of the biggest issues with Microsoft. The licensing model is either quite difficult to understand or is constantly evolving."
"Improvement is needed in the migration process from Lakehouse to Enterprise Data Lake (EDL)."
"Currently, Azure Data Lake Storage has blob, table, and file share, but no vector feature."
"Simple migrations from one data lake to another take too much time and could be improved."
"The version was a bit outdated compared to the newer Microsoft Data Fabric offerings."
"Azure Data Lake Storage should support other formats apart from the Data Lake format, such as the Iceberg format."
"I suggest enhancing the connectors for improvement. Some software, like HubSpot and Xero, has connectors, but they're limited to a few fields. That's why we use REST API calls instead. It would be better if the connectors could retrieve all data."
"The only potential drawback is that Pure Storage might be overkill if you don't need microsecond response times."
"It would be nice to have support in Swedish."
"To me, I think it's a little expensive. Then again, you get what you pay for."
"I'm not sure if any improvements are needed."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The tool is cheap, depending on the services and requirements you need."
"Compared to other options we've explored, I would rate the pricing a seven out of ten, with ten being expensive."
"I rate the product price as two or three, where one is high, and ten is low. The product's price is really high."
"From one to ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive, I rate the product price as five."
"It's a pay-as-you-go model. Your charges are based on the amount of data you store."
"Pricing is tricky because it depends on the solution you're building and the type of Data Lake storage you use—hot or cold."
"It costs just a few dollars per terabyte per month."
"One of the most affordable products from the vendor"
"The pricing is very good."
