StorageOS
By StorageOS
Certified enterprise ready
Cloud-native, software-defined storage that facilitates running databases, message queues, and other stateful workloads in Kubernetes when rapid recovery and fault tolerance are essential.
Software version
v2
Runs on
OpenShift 4.2+
Delivery method
Operator
Rating
Provision persistent volumes that can be mounted into containers, allowing you to run stateful workloads on OpenShift. Our deterministic performance makes us particularly suitable for databases and message queues. We offer several features that can be enabled per-volume, including synchronous replication for data integrity, and encryption at rest to protect data. Data locality automatically co-locates pods with the volumes they rely on, providing improved performance.
Unmatched performance
StorageOS runs applications up to 15 times faster than any other storage provider on the market, giving industry leading performance and low latency for your stateful applications.
Reliability & Scalability
Delta Sync reduces the time to recovery allowing rapid cluster convergence by only replicating the missed data to the node. Synchronous replication for high availability enables quick recovery of applications and databases. Volumes are accessible across the entire cluster providing high availability, durability, and consistency of application data.
Deployment
Installs anywhere on-premises, bare metal, VMs, or in the cloud, supporting native integration with containers, Kubernetes and CSI. Deployed as a container, all data services are optimized and integrated inline to the StorageOS data plane ensuring the lowest resource overhead and low latency performance. The StorageOS container runs like any other application, with no dependencies on proprietary kernels, storage protocols or other layered services.
Manageability
CLI – open source CLI to manage cluster-wide configuration. GUI – visualize the storage environment with the StorageOS GUI for ease of use. RESTful API – HTTP API used for managing volumes and StorageOS services.
Observability
Log streams for observability and Prometheus for instrumentation.
Ease of use
The operator makes it easy to install. Simply provision volumes and connect them to applications, enabling self-service automation for your volumes – cloud-native storage has never been so easy!
Volume
Dynamically provision self-service storage using Kubernetes CSI, Storage Classes and Persistent Volumes Claims. Declarative configuration makes life simple for engineers.
Security
Security at every layer of the stack with automated certificate management, secure endpoints and encryption of data between nodes. Keys are unique per volume and stored as Kubernetes secrets.

What do you like best?
Cloud Native solution Enterprise Solution : StorageOS V2 Easy integration with Openshift and Native Kubernetes (Validated OCP 3.11 /Storage OS 1.5 and K8S 1.16.x / StorageOS V2.x) Support & reactivity
What do you dislike?
Pricing model StorageOS 1.5 vs StorageOS V2.x But i understand that all the new features will be included at same cost in Storage V2.x
What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?
In the next two year we're expecting that 70% of the new workload will run containers in production. StorageOS solve the problem of running stateful applications with container technologies. Cloud Native Storage is one of the key element to be able to deploy any kind of workload in any cloud.
