I like that you have a small dedicated file system that is fast and resilient for containerized workloads.

Portworx is a simple solution. It's similar to Pure Storage products. They're all easy to use and install. You need to have a little expertise with containers to use Portworx, but it will be no problem for you if you understand containers.

The best thing about Portworx is the Stork, they have called the VPS (Volume Replacement Strategy) and they also have topology awareness, and these are the three features I like.

Portworx virtualizes the aspects of the underlying block storage. That is good because they can also use block storage for their future deployment instead of just NFS.

They have not integrated Portworx with Ondat since they are too focused now on Pure Storage APIs and not on users like us.

It would be highly advantageous to include an integrated backup solution within the same license, rather than purchasing backup separately.
