EMC storage isn't free or Open Source, and yet people use it each and every day for mission critical infrastructure. If you are off put by Quobyte's technology, you should say why. I would note they are based in Germany.
- SEJeff 10y agoEMC storage is established and pretty good. I find it pretty hard to see a serious competitor to glusterfs, orangefs, and cephfs (all open source) and also question how a small startup could do a filesystem better than so many much larger firms struggle at today.
- fh973 10y agoCTO of Quobyte here. I'd like to mention that we don't come out of nowhere. We are working on this since 2006, already built an (open-source) parallel file system before (XtreemFS), and have quite some background in distributed systems. I hope this helps you to put our technology in context. You are also invited to play with our system yourself. It can be installed in an hour or so. Just send me an email (see profile) or get access via our web page.
