IBM Storage Scale vs. Lustre

IBM Spectrum Scale creates excellent and real time data results and the capability to extract data and data modeling tools via IBM Spectrum Scale is amazing. The capacity planning and data archiving and the data security offered by IBM Spectrum Scale is more productive and the data quality control using the system is impressive.

The cost and performance of this product are the most important considerations that we had before purchasing it. Since we deployed Lustre everything in file and data management programs has been running effectively. Documentation of clients' contacts is done effectively and the data is securely stored for future reference. The user interface is flexible and any new user can easily work with it.

When we implemented the Spectrum Scale solution, we had in place a NetApp FAS series working in Metro Cluster mode. What is great about NetApp is its low maintenance. On the other hand, it lacks performance, especially on the CPU nodes. We needed a solution that will deliver steady performance while keeping a steady growth.

This was my first storage software since I started my role as Marketing Manager. It has always served our department well enhancing the achievement of our marketing goals. Our customer's data is securely managed under a safe database. Access to information and categorization of workloads has been simplified under the Lustre system. It can be easily maintained and the cost can be afforded by both large and small scale businesses.
