What do you dislike about IBM Storage Ceph?

There is no a real issue with Red Hat Ceph storage but due to the technology nature the Ceph cluster take some longer time to expand specially when making a large expansion with large number of OSDs.

There is an issue while upgrading from the file store to the blue store this step has to be done when doing an upgrade after release 3, this step takes so much time and has to do offload for the workload. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is IBM Storage Ceph solving and how is that benefiting you?

Red Hat Ceph storage helps us to provide a reliable Cloud because of the data replication inside the Ceph storage cluster. Also the hot-swap for the OSDs so we are doing the storage operations while it's carrying a production traffic. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
