The creators of Qumulo were the ones who created Isilon, and I had a conversation with them, so any of the features within Isilon may need tweaking, but I think they resolved it here. In the year that I worked with it, I did not see anything that I had an issue with. The security is great, and it works with cloud technologies, being a hands-based tool, so you can use it with AWS or Microsoft Azure. It programs very easily. There are REST APIs, and there is a cloud connection. The management and program layer is made up of three capabilities: API, the command line, and a visual interface. In the year that I worked with it and brought it in, I think it has been effective. The only thing I would like to see added to Qumulo is for the interface to improve visually, more in line with vCenter, but that is just my thought. Overall, I appreciate it.

Initially, the failover was supposed to be implemented in Qumulo itself. This failed to happen mid-case, so we had to devise a middleman solution. It was not the cleanest of solutions, but we did get something that worked. Some anti-theft permissions do not transfer well to Qumulo.

In the next release, I would like to see maybe the ability to have more control at a terminal level of the file system using more standard UNIX commands.

The solution could improve availability and improve data protection or data services such as compression of deduplication. In a future release, we'd like to have more cloud API integrations.

This product is not available in the Azure marketplace, which is not a good thing. The price of the software is a bit expensive, so a reduction in cost would make it more competitive.

There is plenty of room for improvement. In the future, I would like to see non-disruptive updates. Switching our or replacing nodes should be easier to do.

Qumulo should continue to expand automation and orchestration capabilities.
