Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The most valuable features are its scalability and Amazon S3 compatibility because we can move back and forth with a hybrid cloud."

"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."

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

"The cost was the main reason we chose to use this solution."

"Ceph was chosen to maintain exact performance and capacity characteristics for customer cloud."

"Red Hat Ceph Storage is a reliable solution, it works well."

"The solution is pretty stable."

"radosgw and librados provide a simple integration with clone, snapshots, and other functions that aid in data integrity."

"Most valuable features include replication and compression."

"We use the solution for cloud storage."

"The ability to provide block storage and object storage from the same storage cluster is very valuable for us."

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."

"An area for improvement would be that it's pretty difficult to manage synchronous replication over multiple regions."

"I would like to see better performance and stability when Ceph is in recovery."

"The product lacks RDMA support for inter-OSD communication."

"It would be nice to have a notification feature whenever an important action is completed."

"Geo-replication needs improvement. It is a new feature, and not well supported yet."

"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."

"In the deployment step, we need to create some config files to add Ceph functions in OpenStack modules (Nova, Cinder, Glance). It would be useful to have a tool that validates the format of the data in those files, before generating a deploy with failures."

"The management features are pretty good, but they still have room for improvement."

"The solution is cheap."

"The price of Red Hat Ceph Storage is reasonable."

"If you can afford a product like Red Hat Ceph Storage then go for it. If you cannot, then you need to test Ceph and get your hands dirty."

"We never used the paid support."

"There is no cost for software."

"Most of time, you can get Ceph with the OpenStack solution in a subscription as a bundle."

"The price of this product isn't high."

"I rate the product’s pricing an eight out of ten."
