Find out what your peers are saying about MinIO, Dell Technologies, Red Hat and others in File and Object Storage."The solution is pretty stable."
"High reliability with commodity hardware."
"Most valuable features include replication and compression."
"We are using Ceph internal inexpensive disk and data redundancy without spending extra money on external storage."
"I like the distributed and self-healing nature of the product."
"The configuration of the solution and the user interface are both quite good."
"The high availability of the solution is important to us."
"The most valuable feature is the stability of the product."
"The solution is useful for machine learning and scientific applications, including computer simulations."
"This has been one of the most reliable storage systems that I have ever used."
"Geo-replication needs improvement. It is a new feature, and not well supported yet."
"It takes some time to re-balance the storage in case of server failure."
"This product uses a lot of CPU and network bandwidth. It needs some deduplication features and to use delta for rebalancing."
"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."
"We have encountered slight integration issues."
"It would be nice to have a notification feature whenever an important action is completed."
"Some documentation is very hard to find."
"The storage capacity of the solution can be improved."
"The read/write ratio is an area in the solution with some flaws and needs improvement."
"The write performance could be improved because it is less than half of the read performance."
