Review on OpenEBS by Darth Calder

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great Open Source Software for Containerized Applications

I like that it's open source, so we can see exactly what they're doing with our data as well how their software works internally (it has been very transparent).

They have helped us solve many problems in regards to performance issues across multiple applications which had nothing at all do about kubernetes or docker itself but rather just standard linux server hardware/software architecture! It also helps keep costs down by running everything off one box instead having several separate boxes dedicated only towards hosting your application(s) - this saves money AND makes things easier because you don't need an IT department full time anymore!! We are using Opebns Ebs service mainly within Kubernteis cluster pods where each pod hosts its own database instance along side any number if web servers etc., however sometimes there will be some instances when those services aren’t needed thus freeing up space.

Pros
  • Easy deployment via Kubernetes yml files & Dockerfiles + easy rollbacks;Easy configuration for containers' network settings such TCP ports+ port ranges firewall rules.
  • SecurityGroups / NetworkPolicy support is great
Cons
  • Zero
