Foglight vs. IBM Storage for Red Hat OpenShift

Strengths [Foglight]

• Monitoring, Alerting and Management of on-prem virtualization and physical servers
• Historical trending and baselining are excellent and being able to compare a problem period against the same sets of data for a period when there was no issue is especially helpful as part of troubleshooting.
• Ease of use for end users is appreciated

Weaknesses [of Foglight]

• Creation and management of custom monitors is a developer level activity requiring Groovy skillset
• Less useful for management of an environment where there is a large amount of custom implementations
• Commitment to longevity of cartridges/packs for specific subsystems
• Ability to create custom schedules/alerts/escalations is only available via a 3rd party product (from a former Quest developer) and is not particularly easy to manage/manipulate
• Lack of API accessibility for external integrations to other analytics (splunk, etc.)

This product performance has been creating positive impact on the growth of our company. I can highly recommend to any company that is struggling to find data storage platform. Since we deployed this tool our data is always secure and our files have the most reliable storage tools. Server storage services from IBM portfolio have been great and we have never failed in any day in data transmission from various sources.

I have not worked with such powerful data storage platform in our organization. This platform has provided us with the most basic storage platform that has enhanced reliable momentum on data management. All our workloads are always under safe environment in this platform and customization of storage disks have been done effectively. IBM Storage for Red Hat OpenShift has met all our cloud storage demands and we are proud of its services.
