Find out what your peers are saying about MinIO, Dell Technologies, Red Hat and others in File and Object Storage."Competitive object storage platform that's stable and scalable."
"I have been satisfied with the stability."
"It's definitely good for unstructured data. In earlier days, we had Centera, so for the DR it's really good. It has load balancing facility, and we're using it with the Kemp Load Balancer."
"The tool is easy to use."
"Dell's technical support team is good."
"I like that the solution is easy to scale and that's its stable."
"The performance is good."
"This product is very competitive."
"Pivotal Cloud Foundry is very robust, especially for building Java."
"Stability is not a concern with this product."
"It is a scalable product...We are not facing any particular issues since most of the applications in our company are written in Java and .NET."
"It supports CI/CD, and is integrated with the CI/CD very well."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is its ability to scale. The services that connect to the database are also very good."
"We find its stability and scalability valuable."
"The most valuable features are the monitoring and the deployment is easier."
"I find the ease of deployment and management of microservices to be the most valuable features. The platform also has good auto-scaling capabilities."
"Its security can be improved."
"The initial setup is not so easy."
"Technical support needs to be improved."
"The solution could be more cost-effective and secure."
"We have concerns about the write performance. We would also like it to be easier to scale out, to add more boxes to the system. And we want improved performance, to use a next-generation NFS service."
"Dell ECS needs to improve its performance."
"They could provide centralized reports."
"If Dell ECS would be available as standalone software, so you can use any hardware with it, would make the solution better. It would also be good if Dell ECS had more integrations with other products."
"Pivotal Cloud Foundry is not scalable, infinitely, because when you install it on a set of virtual machines it is very hard to scale. It's easy to scale on an application level, but not it is not similar to if you were using Amazon. Amazon you can scale thousands of applications."
"In the next release, they should offer additional applications for the databases, and improve the deployment experience."
"It should offer more security features."
"Pivotal Cloud Foundry could improve on the technology it is a bit complex."
"Pivotal Cloud Foundry could improve the documentation. They are good, but they could improve more. Additionally, it would be beneficial if there were more use case examples."
"There are no synthetic application monitoring and real-time monitoring features."
"There is a lot of uncertainty surrounding the future of Pivotal Cloud Foundry."
"Regarding the setup phase, every step is a hurdle. With Pivotal Cloud Foundry, I won't get any proper resources for that. Even if I Google it, there is no proper solution for Pivotal Cloud Foundry."
